This work by Voltaire offers a critical examination of religion across various cultures, highlighting his deist beliefs while challenging the foundations of institutional Christianity. Written in 1769, it serves as one of the earliest comparative studies of religion, juxtaposing Christianity with ancient belief systems from Judaism to Hinduism. Voltaire critiques the superstitions and rituals common to all faiths, arguing that Christianity does not hold a superior position. This first English translation is accompanied by an introduction from scholar S. T. Joshi, making it a significant addition for those interested in Enlightenment thought and religious philosophy.
