Spiritualism: A Satanic Delusion, And A Sign Of The Times (1856)

""Spiritualism: A Satanic Delusion, And A Sign Of The Times"" is a book written by William Ramsey in 1856. The book is a critical examination of the spiritualist movement that was prevalent during the mid-nineteenth century. The author argues that spiritualism is a false and dangerous belief system that is rooted in Satanism. He asserts that spiritualist practices, such as s�����ances and mediumship, are not only fraudulent but also open the door to demonic possession. The book is divided into two parts. In the first part, Ramsey provides an overview of the history of spiritualism and its main beliefs. He also highlights the various ways in which spiritualists attempt to communicate with the dead and argues that such practices are not only impossible but also immoral. In the second part of the book, Ramsey focuses on the dangers of spiritualism. He contends that spiritualism is a sign of the times, a symptom of the moral decay and spiritual emptiness of the age. Ramsey's book is a passionate and polemical attack on spiritualism. It reflects the fears and anxieties of many people during the mid-nineteenth century who were concerned about the rise of new religious movements and the erosion of traditional beliefs. Despite its dated language and style, the book remains an important historical document that sheds light on the religious and cultural debates of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
