Publisher's Synopsis

Pantheisticon: Or The Form Of Celebrating The Socratic Society is a book written by John Toland in 1751. The book is a philosophical treatise on pantheism, which is the belief that the universe and God are one and the same. In the book, Toland presents a fictional society called the ""Socratic Society"" that celebrates this pantheistic belief system. He describes the rituals and ceremonies that this society performs, including the worship of nature and the universe, and the rejection of traditional religious dogma. Toland's work was highly controversial at the time of its publication, as it challenged the dominant religious beliefs of the era. However, it was also influential in the development of modern pantheistic thought. The book is written in a style that is both scholarly and accessible, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of philosophy or the development of religious thought. Overall, Pantheisticon: Or The Form Of Celebrating The Socratic Society is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of pantheism and its implications for human spirituality.Part 1, The Morals And Axioms Of The Pantheists, Or The Brotherhood; Part 2, Their Deity And Philosophy; Part 3, Their Liberty, And A Law, Neither Deceiving, Nor To Be Deceived.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
