Publisher's Synopsis
Evidences of Christianity, (Or, A View of the Evidences of Christianity), was written by English clergyman, Christian apologist, philosopher, and utilitarian, William Paley, and originally published in 1794. Within the work Paley assumed the role of philosopher-natural theologian, much like in his Natural Theology, and argued for the truth of Christianity based on his understanding of historical evidence. Paley supplements human reason with divine revelation as supporting foundations for the existence of God and miracles against deistic thinkers of his time, addressing some his arguments specifically against David Hume.
