Book Description:
Wells wrote in his book God the Invisible King that his idea of God did not draw upon the traditional religions of the world: “This book sets out as forcibly and exactly as possible the religious belief of the writer. [Which] is a profound belief in a personal and intimate God.” Later in the work he aligns himself with a “renascent or modern religion … neither atheist nor Buddhist nor Mohammedan nor Christian … [that] he has found growing up in himself.”
