Thomas Paine criticizes the institutionalized religion and challenges the legitimacy of the bible. Published in three parts at the turn of the 19th century being a bestseller in America. The British public received the writings with caution as the French Revolution is still fresh in their minds. Rejecting miracles and view the bible as an ordinary piece of writing rather than being inspired by God. "I put the following work under your protection. It contains my opinions upon Religion. You will do me the justice to remember, that I have always strenuously supported the Right of every Man to his own opinion, however different that opinion might be to mine. He who denies to another this right, makes a slave of himself to his present opinion, because he precludes himself the right of changing it. The most formidable weapon against errors of every kind is Reason. I have never used any other, and I trust I never shall. Your affectionate friend and fellow-citizen," Thomas Paine
