John Toland war ein rationalistischer Philosoph und Freidenker, der etablierte religiöse Doktrinen in Frage stellte und die Vernunft als Grundlage der Aufklärung befürwortete. Seine Werke, oft mit kluger Vorsicht verfasst, hinterfragten das Übernatürliche und erforschten die Ursprünge religiöser Überzeugungen. Als einer der ersten professionellen Freidenker gilt Tolands Schaffen als bedeutender Beitrag zur frühen Entwicklung des aufklärerischen Denkens.
