Résumé anglais While historians of the early American republic have long argued that deism disappeared at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, this study intends to explore the resilience of a deistic form of free thought as it appears through the spiritual belief system of the communities of the Society for Universal Inquiry and Reform. Highly critical of the American society – which they considered plagued by many evils – these communities advocated a radical refashioning of the social, political and economic structures but sought above all a spiritual regeneration of man by forging a secular religion suffused with panentheistic undertones as the only path to practical happiness.
