Can I read Voltaire on EtoBox?

Voltaire by Clayton is a document available to read on EtoBox.

What is Voltaire about?

Voltaire argues that while some level of religious superstition may be useful for controlling the masses, true enlightenment comes from embracing reason over false beliefs. He acknowledges that in less educated times, some superstitions could be tolerated to keep order, but as society progresses, holding on to obviously false claims becomes dangerous and counterproductive. Overall he promotes tolerance of all religious and non-religious beliefs as long as they do not promote harming others.
