| In this book, Joseph Butler examines Christianity. He discusses its importance, its proofs, the unavoidableness of its containing strange things, the absurdity of expecting fully to comprehend its statements. He answers not only the objections to Christianity, but the objections against its proofs; which he shows are very different things. |
