This ties in with problems in the articles Natural Law and Physical law. To an educated individual of the late 18th Century, especially one versed in the ideas of the Enlightenment, the term Natural Law would refer to what we call today the Laws of Physics, rather than referring to modes of human behavior as rooted in the natural world. Meanings of phrases and words shift over time, and that needs to be made clear when discussing the viewpoints of deists and what they speak of when they use the term "natural law."

The Rights of Man is found at book stores with 256 pages. Common Sense can be found with 56 pages. I don't know exactly where the division between "book" and "pamphlet" lies, but The Age of Reason is found with 220 pages, so it's either a book or a very thick pamphlet. I think this should be altered and called a "book", don't you? – Paine Ellsworth CLIMAX! 00:59, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Just a note that I got on a TFA talk page ... this article starts off "English and American political activist Thomas Paine", but the Thomas Payne article starts off "English-born American political activist" (and philosopher and other things). It would be helpful if the two articles were in sync. This article will hit the Main Page for a second time on the 23rd of this month; I'll check later to see if there have been changes to the lead. - Dank ( push to talk) 00:02, 9 March 2018 (UTC)
