Book excerpt: Superstition Unveiled is a short book by Charles Southwell. Southwell was an English journalist, freethinker and colonial supporter, here discussing different forms of superstition and they enmesh with everyday reality. Excerpt: "Wise men put no trust in doctrine which involves or assumes supernatural existence. Believing that supernaturalism reduced to 'system' cannot be other than 'wickedly political,' they see no hope for 'slave classes,' apart from a general diffusion of anti-superstitious ideas. They cannot reconcile the wisdom of theologians with undoubted facts, and though willing to admit that some 'modes of faith' are less absurd than others, are convinced they are all essentially alike, because all fundamentally erroneous."
