| Description: | Abstract: In 1860, two members of the Sheffield Secular Society formed a new journal. They believed that religion was blocking progress and advocated what they called an atheistic Secularism. The newspaper advocated a whole range of reforms including universal suffrage and republicanism. Sales of the National Reformer reached 5,000 but in 1861 one of the founders left the journal because he disagreed with the advocacy of birth control. |
