Christianity as old as the creation

Book • 1730
In 'Christianity as Old as the Creation,' Matthew Tindal presents a rationalistic view of Christianity, suggesting that it is essentially a restatement of the universal religion of nature.

This work, often referred to as 'the Deists' Bible,' critiques traditional religious authority and emphasizes reason as the primary guide for understanding morality and religion.

It had significant influence on Enlightenment thought and was widely debated across Europe.
