About this listen
In this enlightening exploration, we delve into the essence of religion as the foundational purpose of our existence and the key to our happiness. Religion, defined as the profound connection between ourselves and our Creator, requires a deep understanding of both Gods nature and our own. Central to this understanding are the two vital faculties of our being the Understanding and the Will. While both are crucial, the study of the Will holds particular significance, as it is where virtue and religious practice truly reside. This podcast addresses the pivotal question of the Freedom of the Will, a topic of utmost importance for Christians and theologians alike. Join us as we uncover the profound implications of this subject.Copyright Religious Texts and Commentary Christianity Ministry & Evangelism Philosophy Social Sciences Spirituality

  • History of Freedom of Thought-John Bagnell Bury
    Nov 7 2026
    History of Freedom of Thought by John Bagnell Bury.

    The great civil liberties we enjoy today, like Freedom of Speech and Freedom of the Press, have their foundation in Freedom of Thought. Without being able to freely explore all kinds of matter with an inquisitive mind, whether it be religious, political, societal, scientific, etc., any expression thereof is limited in and of itself. John Bagnell Bury tells the history of freedom of thought from its roots in Ancient Greece and Rome through the dark and restrictive Middle Ages and its renewed liberation in the Renaissance and the Reformation until the Rationalism of the 17th - 19th centuries. The focus of this book is on religious freethought, but the ideas and values of freedom of thought can be applied to any subject where rigorous thinking is beneficial.
