Voltaire thinks that human superstition is extremely dangerous, saying that "when God offers us bread, we should not strive to eat on it." He held the view that religious ideas could be helpful but were not always truthful.
Who was Voltaire?
The most persuasive and persistent proponent of the anti-dogmatic "Enlightenment" movement was Voltaire. He promoted "deism," a nebulous alternative to orthodox religion that acknowledged a creator and a certain amount of divine justice but denied the majority of the other core doctrines of Christianity. Instead, he preached that everyone must put up with one another. It is clear that his objections to atheism are flimsy and that he views religious ideas as helpful but not necessarily genuine when he promotes even faulty religion as superior to none.
Why, according to Voltaire, is tolerance so important?
Regardless of race or religion, according to Voltaire, we should view all men as our brothers and be capable of tolerating one another.
