Ebook: The God of Spinoza and the Three Impostures

This book is the excerpt of the chapters for the Three Impostures from the 1678-88 French copy of the book attributed to Spinoza, Traité des Trois Imposteurs, Moïse, Jésus-Christ, Mahomet (Treat of Three Impostures: Moses, Jesus-Christ, Mohammad). It concerns the idea of the God, the Prophets, and in the most published versions in his name, the Spirit. Spinoza uses the word “imposture” in the title for monotheistic prophets, where he does not put Judaism, Christianity and Islam into the same bag, but he concludes that their prophets were sheer charlatans, scammers of former Gods.
