Jean Meslier fue un sacerdote ateo que después de su muerte dejó escrito una obra en la que critica la religión y defiende el ateÃsmo, la justicia y la igualdad social. La Razón Natural es una obra que cuestiona todo lo que se le ha enseñado para pensar y creer, una obra que nos reta a pensar y actuar fuera de los lÃmites de lo establecido.

À partir des essais de Montaigne et de la Démonstration de l'existence de Dieu de Fénelon - qu'il annote frénétiquement dans les marges - Jean Meslier rédige ses propres Pensées et sentiments, volumineux mémoire manuscrit recopié en trois exemplaires qu'il lègue clandestinement à ses paroissiens. Ce testament philosophique fait de lui un précurseur des Lumières de tout premier plan. Il y est le premier à professer un athéisme sans concession tandis qu'il développe avant la lettre un matérialisme rigoureux et pose également en précurseur les bases d'une philosophie anarchiste, ainsi qu'une conception communiste de la société. De nouvelles copies circulèrent sous le manteau. Voltaire, d'Holbach, Frédéric II de Prusse, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Diderot, d'Alembert et l'ensemble des encyclopédistes les liront clandestinement et subiront l'influence de Meslier. Tout en restant dans l'ombre, Voltaire fait publier en 1762 des extraits de cette oeuvre qui est si corrosive qu'il en réécrit et édulcore certains passages jusqu'à les rendre méconnaissables. L'athéisme radical du curé s'y trouve travesti en un déisme prudent. D'Holbach publia, quant à lui, Le bon sens du Curé Jean Meslier suivi de son testament.
Jean Meslier, ou Mellier, né à Mazerny (Ardennes) le 15 juin 1664, est un prêtre et philosophe des Lumières français, curé d'Étrépigny où il est mort au début de l'été 1729.Son existence n'a été connue qu'à partir de la publication en 1762 par Voltaire, sous le titre de Testament de J. Meslier, d'un texte qu'il présentait comme un extrait d'un texte beaucoup plus volumineux, retrouvé chez lui et dans lequel un curé professait avec détermination son athéisme et se livrait à une critique radicale des injustices de la société de son temps.Ce texte, au titre original de Mémoires des pensées et sentiments de Jean Meslier..., est considéré comme le texte fondateur de l'athéisme et de l'anticléricalisme militant en France.Il est considéré comme le premier prêtre à avoir abjuré les idées religieuses et déchiré le voile de la superstition .Texte intégral.

"I call heaven to witness that I also thoroughly despised those who laughed at the simplicity of the blind people, those who furnished piously considerable sums of money to buy prayers. How horrible this monopoly! I do not blame the disdain which those who grow rich by your sweat and your pains, show for their mysteries and their superstitions; but I detest their insatiable cupidity and the signal pleasure such fellows take in railing at the ignorance of those whom they carefully keep in this state of blindness. Let them content themselves with laughing at their own ease, but at least let them not multiply their errors by abusing the blind piety of those who, by their simplicity, procured them such an easy life. You render unto me, my brethren, the justice that is due me. The sympathy which I manifested for your troubles saves me from the least suspicion. How often have I performed gratuitously the functions of my ministry. How often also has my heart been grieved at not being able to assist you as often and as abundantly as I could have wished! Have I not always proved to you that I took more pleasure in giving than in receiving? I carefully avoided exhorting you to bigotry, and I spoke to you as rarely as possible of our unfortunate dogmas. It was necessary that I should acquit myself as a priest of my ministry, but how often have I not suffered within myself when I was forced to preach to you those pious lies which I despised in my heart. What a disdain I had for my ministry, and particularly for that superstitious Mass, and those ridiculous administrations of sacraments, especially if I was compelled to perform them with the solemnity which awakened all your piety and all your good faith. What remorse I had for exciting your credulity! A thousand times upon the point of bursting forth publicly, I was going to open your eyes, but a fear superior to my strength restrained me and forced me to silence until my death."

Superstition in All Ages is a book written by Jean Meslier, a French Catholic priest who lived in the 17th and 18th centuries. The book is a critical examination of the role of superstition and religion in human history, and it argues that these beliefs have been used to control and manipulate people throughout the ages.Meslier begins by exploring the origins of superstition and religion, tracing their development from ancient times to the present day. He argues that these beliefs have been used to justify wars, slavery, and other forms of oppression, and that they have often been used to maintain the power of ruling elites.The book also examines the role of organized religion in society, and Meslier argues that it has often been used to suppress individual freedom and creativity. He critiques the Catholic Church in particular, arguing that it has been responsible for many of the worst abuses of power in history.Despite its critical stance towards religion and superstition, Superstition in All Ages is not a nihilistic work. Meslier argues that humans can find meaning and purpose in life without relying on religious beliefs, and he encourages readers to embrace reason and scientific inquiry as a way of understanding the world.Overall, Superstition in All Ages is a thought-provoking and challenging work that continues to be relevant today, as people grapple with questions about the role of religion in society and the potential for human progress.A Roman Catholic Priest who After a Pastoral Service of Thirty Years at Etrepigny and but in Champagne, France, wholly Abjured Religious Dogmas, and left as His Last Will and Testament to His Parishioners, and to the world, to be Published after his Death, the Following Pages, Entitled, Common Sense.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
