W. C.
Church

Ch. Church its
§. Conflicting interests

2

§.3. Practical importance

1
Material when the
interest of the church
is the matter in question,
to know in which
sense (and in particular
as between two of
them) it is meant to
be employed. p1

2
The reason is, because
between the interests
of the Church — i.e.
ruling few & Church
i.e. subject many, a
diametrical opposition
exists. p.1

3
1 It is the interest of
the few to have power
over the many: é
contra
the interest
of the many: it is
their interest that
political power should
be somewhere, but
that the instruction
giving few should
have no more power
than if they gave no
instruction.

2 The interest of
the few is to extract
as much wealth as
they can, whether
any service be rendered
for it or not

3 Item. respect on
the same conditions.

4 It is also their interest
to expend in
administering their
duty and qualifying
themselves (as well
as on any non-pleasurable
occupation) as
little labour as they
can — or rather if
possible (receiving
as much emolument
as possible) to bestow
no labour at all.

5. Pride —
it is the interest of
the instructing few
as a means, (& an efficient
one it is when accompanied
with wealth)
of obtaining respect
to display as much of
it as can be tolerated, so as to
arrogance. But the interest
of the subject Church is the reverse
