Bertrand Russell letter to Harry R. Major
Manuscripts
In this letter, Russell is discussing his religious beliefs, or lack thereof. He says that he is unsure sometimes of his beliefs and call himself both an atheist and agnostic at varying times. He also states that he thinks the idea of "God" is very unlikely and the same as the belief in "the Gods of Olympus or Valhalla." The letter is written on Russell's own letterhead from his estate in Wales "Plas Penrhyn."
