| Summary | "Absurdities of Immaterialism: or, a Reply to T. W. P. Taylder's Pamphlet" by Orson Pratt is a philosophical treatise written in the mid-19th century. The work is a rebuttal focusing on the discussions surrounding materialism and immaterialism, particularly addressing T. W. P. Taylder’s arguments against the material beliefs held by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Pratt aims to defend the idea that both physical and spiritual substances are material, presenting his critique of Taylder's concepts regarding the nature of existence and truth. The opening of the text presents a detailed discourse on the nature of truth and the rationale behind material versus immaterial substance. Orson Pratt asserts that the philosophical questions posed by Taylder about materialism are misguided, emphasizing that truths exist independently of human perception. He challenges the definitions given to immaterial substances, arguing that such classifications lack clarity and contradiction. Pratt’s writing methodically dismantles Taylder's claims by providing logical arguments that advocate for a material understanding of all elements of existence, including mind and spirit, thereby establishing a foundation for his belief system aligned with the principles of materialism.
