Sinopsis

'The Belief In A Personal God And A Future Life' captures a series of six compelling nights of discussion between Thomas Cooper and Joseph Barker, held in St. George?s Hall, Bradford, in September 1860. This volume preserves their articulate and engaging debate on fundamental questions of theism, morality, and the afterlife. Cooper, a renowned Chartist and religious apologist, defends traditional Christian beliefs, while Barker, a former Methodist preacher turned radical reformer, challenges these doctrines with arguments rooted in reason and social justice. The discussions delve into the existence and nature of a personal God, the evidence for a future life, and the implications of belief or disbelief for individual and societal well-being. Presented in a verbatim transcript, the arguments offer a fascinating glimpse into the intellectual and religious ferment of Victorian England.
