Satans Devices and the Believers Victory: Now Available!

CLICK TO PURCHASE

Parsons' "Satans Devices" is an interesting text- one which manages to combine (effectively) Protestant demonological opinion with social reformism, containing a large number of specific anecdotes regarding both the author and contemporaries interacting with heretics, demoniacs, and disbelievers.

Satan is here regarded primarily as a tempter to vanity, vice, and disbelief- a rather Protestant opinion (especially in the mid 19th century.) All the problems of sloth, greed, and lust, are explored. The socially reformist ideology which forms a backdrop to this religious ideology during the early industrial period is of historical import.

The work has been illustrated as well by the very good Rave Feather Illustrations.

The Devil: Now Available!

CLICK TO PURCHASE

This little work is a nice little addition to the spiritual library being amassed here- it isn't about magic though, it's actually a reformist tract from the godfather of agnosticism aimed at bringing the idea of Hell and Satan low. It's a pretty good two pronged argument too, since it focuses on the rational (contraditions in the Bible, etc) and the emotional (the ethics of such a concept being real.) It should be noted that this is technically a long speech- an oratory- put to text and is not a stand-alone booklet at all, per se.
