Über diesen Titel

 My Path to Atheism is a groundbreaking work, especially considering it was penned by a woman in Victorian England—a time when free thought was often stifled, particularly for women. It took a truly exceptional woman to write such a bold and, to many in the 19th century, heretical document in an era dominated by the Church. Annie Besant, originally married to a clergyman, experienced a profound transformation in her beliefs, ultimately leading to her legal separation and her commitment to secularism. She became a key figure in the National Secular Society and co-editor of the National Reformer, advocating for progressive ideas like trade unions, national education, and birth control. In 1877, Besant published My Path to Atheism, a compilation of lectures where she meticulously dissects the core tenets of Christianity. As readers journey through her chapters, they witness her intellectual evolution from Theism to Atheism, culminating in a powerful critique of the Church of Englands Catechism. (Summary by Kevin Green)
