A Faithless World (1885)

A Faithless World is a book written by Frances Power Cobbe in 1885. The book explores the concept of faith and its place in society. Cobbe argues that faith is essential for the well-being of individuals and society as a whole. She believes that a lack of faith leads to moral decay, social unrest, and a general sense of hopelessness. Cobbe examines the various forms of faith, including religious faith, faith in humanity, and faith in progress. She also discusses the challenges to faith, such as skepticism, atheism, and scientific discoveries that challenge traditional beliefs. Throughout the book, Cobbe draws on her own experiences and observations to support her arguments. She provides examples of societies that have lost faith and suffered as a result, as well as societies that have maintained faith and flourished. Overall, A Faithless World is a thought-provoking exploration of the importance of faith in society. It is a timeless work that continues to be relevant today, as people continue to grapple with questions of faith and belief in an increasingly secular world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
