The Nature and Danger of Infidel Philosophy

ByTimothy Dwight

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
During troubled times at Yale University, then president Timothy Dwight saw his students drawn to the radical republicanism and “infidel philosophy” of the French Revolution; including the philosophies of Hume, Hobbes, Tindal, Lords Shaftesbury & Bolingbroke and other so called philosophers. Between 1797 and 1800, Dwight frequently warned audiences against the threats of this “infidel philosophy” in America. An address to the candidates for the baccalaureate in Yale College called "The Nature and Danger of Infidel Philosophy, Exhibited in Two Discourses, Addressed to the Candidates for the Baccalaureate, In Yale College" was delivered on September 9, 1797. It was published by George Bunce in 1798. This reprint is taken word for word from an original printing held in the archives at A. Webb Roberts Library, Fort Worth, Texas.
