Publisher's Synopsis
The Dangers of Spiritualism is a book written by J. Godfrey Raupert in 1911. The book discusses the dangers and potential harm that spiritualism can cause to individuals who practice it. Spiritualism is defined as the belief in communication with the dead or spirits through mediums or seances. Raupert argues that spiritualism can be harmful because it can lead to deception, fraud, and manipulation by those who claim to have supernatural powers. He also claims that spiritualism can lead to mental and emotional instability, as well as a loss of faith in traditional religious beliefs. The book provides numerous examples of spiritualist practices and their potential dangers, including stories of individuals who have been deceived by fraudulent mediums and have suffered emotional and financial losses as a result. Raupert also explores the history of spiritualism and its rise in popularity during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Overall, The Dangers of Spiritualism is a cautionary tale about the potential dangers of dabbling in the supernatural and the importance of skepticism and critical thinking when it comes to claims of spiritual communication.Being Records of Personal Experiences With Notes and Comments and Five Illustrations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
