P.1. Anglican Church
By the considerations

-sent, will be .
But it is supported, for

their use. p.1

The truth of a proposi-
-tion, be the discussion

-cient, its -

The truth of the history
of Jesus need not be -
 ;but the utility of
the of its truth.
p.2

to the end in question
it is necessary that it
be in mens minds,
it is necessary that it
should be learnt. p.2
5
Hence that it should be
6
But this does not neces-
-rarily follow - For a
man may learn a thing
be it what it may, if able
and willing of himself.
Ex.gr. to eat, drink, or
sleep; which once is necess-
-ary to being of
religion. p.2.
7
That some individuals in
the community, learn their
religion themselves cannot
be denied. But that there
some by whom it aids
never learnt, is also true.
Ex. yr. destitute orphans.
p.3

But, whether done by
self or others, it be done
for a man without inter-
. -ference of government.
Governments aid is need-
-less - & thence by reason
of experience inconvenience
mischievous. p.3

In application to this may
be shown, that among -
- Jesus' religion is taught
by special teachers without
interference of government
if not so well it is for those
who may not show it. p.3

P1.
10
Among sectaries it is
taught without teachers ap-
-pointed by government,
among quakers, without
help of special teachers at
all. - But whether
it will be taught without
teachers, of experience
dictate. p.4
11
Answer.
1. Self defence being by
Quakers interdicted, - this
most christian section only
christian small numbers.
p.4
12
2. This to non- Quakers sectu-
-ries, though it be true
that the religion is taught
none regularly
completely without govern-
-ment paid teachers, than
by members of the church
with; yet this would not
suffice to prove that govern-
-ment aught not to interfere.
Feeding or teaching A. is
not feeding or teaching B.
& I. p.4
13
Therefore while any indi-
-vidual mission, of whom
without the interference of
government it would not
be learnt, to many
are there for the appoint-
-ment of teachers.
14
Whether the reasons for
interference shall
be conclusive will depend
on members of such indivi-
-duals, and on conveni-
-ence of interference. p.5
15
Consideration on this ground,
the question as to England
would be difficultly, if at all
solvable. p.5
16
For practical decision,
it will therefore wait for
the last out of the prob-
-topics. - to articulate that
decision would be -
- - 2 individuals may
suffice, suffering
teachers offices abolished
justice would regain
continuation of their faith.

2 People considered as -
- not only institu-
-tion but in their accus-

appointed by govern-

quaker,& improper
though those who decide
should recognise the im-
-propriety, yet her
gaurd had to the many ap-
-proving it, the
of its abolition would be
in definitely distant. p.6

The question here is whether
any thing of Jesus'
religion should be taught
what shall be taught,
May be reserved for the
such topic practical utility partly for qualifications
because, a matters
taught, will be qualifica-
-tions for teaching it.
