Έγινε διάσημος με το βιβλίο του "Ο ΧΡΙΣΤΙΑΝΙΣΜΟΣ ΧΩΡΙΣ ΜΥΣΤΗΡΙΑ",στο οποίο υποστήριξε ότι τα δεδομένα και τα δόγματα της Βίβλου και της Χριστιανικής αποκάλυψης επιδέχονται λογική εξήγηση και είναι κατανοητά από τον ανθρώπινο νου.
Το βιβλίο του αυτό,παραμένει από τις κλασσικές πραγματείες του Ντε'ι'σμού.

John Toland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
John Toland (30 November 1670 - 11 March 1722) was a rationalist philosopher and Freethinker. Educated at the universities of Glasgow, Edinburgh, Leiden, and Oxford, and influenced by the philosophy of John Locke, he published many books and pamphlets in political and religious philosophy that are early expressions of the philosophy of the Age of Enlightenment.
Biography
Very little is known about his early life. He was born in Ardagh (Ballyliffin) on the Inishowen Peninsula, a predominantly Catholic and Irish speaking region of County Donegal in Ireland. His parents are unknown, although he was supposedly was the illegitimate son of a Roman Catholic priest and in all likelihood baptized Seán Eoghain (Sean Owen). He would later write that he had been baptized Janus Junius, a play on his name that recalled both the Roman two-faced god Janus and Junius Brutus, reputed founder of the Roman republic. He adopted the name 'John' as a schoolboy, with the encouragement of his school teacher.
