''Religious Demands Of The Age'' is a reprint of the preface to the London edition of the collected works of Theodore Parker, written by Frances Power Cobbe in 1863. The book explores the religious demands of the 19th century and how they relate to the teachings of Theodore Parker, a prominent American Unitarian minister and abolitionist. Cobbe discusses Parker’s views on religion, including his rejection of traditional Christian doctrines and his emphasis on the importance of reason and morality. She also examines the role of religion in society, particularly in relation to social justice and the abolition of slavery. Throughout the book, Cobbe argues that Parker’s ideas are still relevant today and that his teachings can help guide us in addressing the religious demands of our own age. Overall, ''Religious Demands Of The Age'' provides a thought-provoking analysis of the intersection of religion, morality, and social justice in the 19th century and beyond.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
