Being, a Defence of the Natural Innocence of Man, Against Kings and Priests or Tyrants and Impostors
Credits: Produced by David Widger
Summary: "The Character of the Jew Books" by Richard Carlile is a philosophical and political work published in the early 19th century. This book serves as a critique of the moral and ethical teachings found in biblical texts, particularly those associated with Judaism, delving into the influence of education on human behavior and suggesting that societal ills stem from the misguiding principles inherent in religious texts rather than innate human depravity. In this provocative text, the author posits that human beings are shaped primarily by their education and the moral frameworks that govern them. Carlile argues that teachings from the "Jew Books" perpetuate immoral behavior by showcasing examples of violence, lust, and hypocrisy. He emphasizes that crime and moral failings among individuals should be attributed to flawed educational systems and the corrupt influence of rulers and religious leaders, suggesting that true justice and morality would be achievable if society rejected these detrimental teachings. Through this lens, he defends the notion of human innocence, asserting that people are inherently good and that their failings are cultivated by misguided doctrines and oppressive governance.
