A Free Inquiry Into the Miraculous Powers, Which are Supposed to Have Subsisted in the Christian Church, From the Earliest Ages Through Several Successive Centuries - Conyers Middleton - Bog

Middleton argues that many of the supposed miracles attributed to saints and holy men in the early Christian Church were in fact invented by the Church's leaders to support and promote the faith. He shows that these miracles lack credible evidence and asserts that the Christian faith doesn't require miraculous evidence to be legitimate or valuable.
