Abstract of the Testament of John Meslier is a book written by Voltaire that presents the thoughts and beliefs of John Meslier, a French Catholic priest who lived in the 17th century. Meslier's testament, which was discovered after his death, reveals his rejection of religion and his embrace of atheism. The book provides a summary of Meslier's testament, including his criticism of the Catholic Church and his arguments against the existence of God. Voltaire, who was a prominent figure of the Enlightenment, uses Meslier's testament to argue for religious tolerance and freedom of thought. The book is a significant work in the history of atheism and has been influential in shaping modern secular thought.THIS 64 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Superstition in All Ages, by Voltaire .
