Thomas Paine
<s>Tomas Pejn (; Tetford, 29. januar 1737 — Njujork, 8. jun 1809) je bio američki pisac i revolucionar rođen u Britaniji.</s><s>Odrastao u porodici kvekera.</s><s>U Ameriku je otišao 1774. i u Ratu za nezavisnost borio se na strani kolonista.</s><s>Vratio se u Englesku 1789. ali pošto je optužen za izdaju pobegao je u Francusku gde je bio pristalica republikanizma.</s><s>Za vreme jakobinske diktature jedva je izbegao giljotinu.</s><s>Pejnov radikalizam spojio je privrženost političkoj slobodi sa snažnom verom u suverenitet naroda što je inspirisalo i liberalni republikanizam i socijalistički egalitarizam.</s>

<s>U decembru 1793 je uhapšen i zatvoren u Parizu, a zatim pušten 1794.</s><s>Razlog hapšenja je njegova knjiga Doba Razuma u kojoj se objašnjava Deizam, promoviše razložno rasuđivanje, slobodno mišljenje i zalaže protiv institucionalizovane religije, posebno hrišćanske doktrine.</s><s>U Ameriku se vratio 1802.</s><s>Umro je 8. juna 1809 u Njujorku.</s><s>Samo šest ljudi je prisustvovalo njegovoj sahrani jer je bio izopšten zbog njegovog omalovažavanja hrišćanstva .</s>

<s>Dela 
Njegova najznačajnija dela su:
 Zdrav razum (1777)
 Prava čoveka (1791/92)
 Doba razuma (1794)</s>

<s>U delu "Doba razuma", Tomas Pejn kaže:
Ja ne verujem u veru koju ispoveda jevrejska crkva, rimska crkva, grčka crkva, turska crkva, protestantska crkva, niti bilo koja crkva, koliko ja znam.</s><s>Moj um je moja sopstvena crkva.</s><s>Sve te institucionalizovane crkve, ... meni izgledaju kao ljudske tvorevine, izmišljene da zastraše i porobe čovečanstvo, ako i da monopolizuju moć i profit.</s>
