It is formatted to display on all electronic devices including the Kindle, Smartphones and other Mobile Devices with a small display. ****************** Translated by W. F. Trotter The Pensees (literally, "thoughts") represented a defense of the Christian religion by Blaise Pascal, the renowned 17th century philosopher and mathematician. Pascal's religious conversion led him into a life of asceticism, and the Pensees was in many ways his life's work."Pascal's Wager" is found here. The Pensees is in fact a name given posthumously to his fragments, which he had been preparing for an Apology of Christian Religion which was never completed. - Excerpted from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

"Provincial Letters" in a provincial book
Excellent Read; Humorous and Insightful Pascal wrote these letters in defense of his Jansenist friends who were being branded as heretics by the Jesuits.At the time, the Jesuits were a powerful religious order who basically taught Christianity all over the world. In the Provincial Letters, Pascal exposes and ridicules the doctrines of the Jesuits, especially the "doctrine of probable opinions".The Jesuits (supposedly) were attempting to update the Christian doctrine to satisfy the lax morals of the modern world.In an attempt to "widen the pipe" to heaven, the Jesuits developed "modern" church doctrine (while ignoring traditional church doctrine, and the scriptures) to compensate for societies lax morals. Pascal, defender of the faith, effectively ridicules their doctrines and shows their errors. A word of caution, the letters are difficult going with respect to discussions on the finer theological points of view (how far we have fallen regarding knowledge of our faith).A good introduction will orient the reader to the conflicts and provide information regarding many of the theological discussions (the edition I used did not have an introduction; this one may).However, Pascal's writing is so humorous and engaging that I continued reading even when I was lost in the argument. I am on record (in another review) as stating that religion should be updated to reflect our modern view of the world.However, these letters point out the danger of attempting to do that.I need to reconsider that approach. ...

A Good Description of Pascal's Theology!
Reasons of the Heart
A Fine Intro to Pascal for Americans
BlueJay54 on Blaise Pascal ???Please Mind you, one should not expect to learn this from a Christian writer and a Christian publishing house, but Pascal's natal astrology chart clearly illustrates the problems and paradoxes that he faced in life: Venus in Cancer squaring the Moon's Nodes and opposing Mars in Capricorn, with healing Chiron in Taurus, and a Stellium (Jupiter conjunct Saturn conjunct Uranus) in Leo. No wonder Pascal felt so torn by fame-and-fortune seeking of his keen mind, yet was irresistibly drawn to a fiery fundamentalism and an ascetic life-style! Christianity, Pascal--NO God Himself--can't be Viewed, Explained, argued Logically, or Intelligently from "ASTROLOGICAL" Premises. I did however find your comments, amusing, and commical.
