Best Answer

The Age of Reason was a period in the 17th century in which intellectual expression and open interchange of ideas was encouraged by philosophers.

The Age of Reason is also the title of a book by Thomas Paine, who used it to put forth ideas critical of institutionalized religion and promoting natural and free religion.
