1 Principle
1. Excellence. VII Pay

1. Excellence. V. Pay

1
Inquirenda

1 Ought governments
to interfere with religion?

2 Ought a particular
class of men to be set
apart by Government
for the service of religion?

2
Religion is a subject
that requires instruction.
Suppose it false, it
requires instruction to
prove it such. p.2.

Is not this employed in Ch. 1
Existence?

3
Anglice the religion
professed to be pursued
is that of Jesus. p.2

4
To pay for instruction
in it, and for ceremonies
money to a large amount
is forced from the people
in taxes, and distributed
among Priests. p.2

1. Existence. VII. Pay

1
Inquirenda

1. For instructing men
in religion, ought an
order of men now to be
set apart?

2. Ought pay for them to
be raised by force?

3 These instructors ought
they as such, to have
any share in government? p.1

Existence 2 Necessary 2

1 Of the non necessity
of a separate order, a
prima facie proof is
presented by the Quakers.
Among them without
such separate order, the
religious sanction is applied
with better and
stronger moral effect
than among others with
it. p.1

3
But by this example it
is not proved that
such can be the case
universally, in any
political state.

For Quakers being bound
not to protect themselves,
cannot exist but in a
state in which they
are protected by others.
p.1

☞ 4 Feb 1813. In Ch is
Existence a Teachers necessary.
Is not the substance of these
two articles there employed?

VII Pay. §.1. Pt I Necessity.

1
II. Of the non necessity
of forced contributions
for this purpose, all non-
established Churches
are so many prima
facie proofs p.1

2
1 In Ireland without
such force, Catholics keep
up their numbers against
Church of Englandism:
so do Presbyterians theirs.
p.1

3
In England, Church
of Englandism gains
no proselytes from, but
leaves proselytes to, the
non established Churches
especially to Methodists.
p.1

4
This proof is not conclusive
for
1 Because the members
of the non established
Churches keep up their
numbers without such
force, it follows not
that do of the established
could. — To the established
Churches is belong
every where the non
religionists: viz. as
not belonging to any
non established one
p.1

5
No assurance that without
the example set
by the established, there
could have been any
non-established
Churches.
