introduce religion,
and with her now in addition to insincerity, comes cruelty, or in the
words ascribed to her, hatred, malice and all
uncharitableness. To cause men to teach the same
absurdity or other, treasures up to the value of whole
kingdoms have been employed. To cause men
to fence themselves into the belief of it, or rather
for that can scarcely be said to be possible, to
keep out of their minds the disbelief of it,
eternal torments i.e. the fear of them has
been and continues to be employed. But,
proportioned to the difficulty of keeping out
this unbelief and thereby of purchasing a supposed
security against these torments, will
be the uneasiness experienced by the miserable
patient, as often as any consideration
tending to produce such disbelief, is presented
to view. Proportioned to this uneasiness, will
of course be the anger excited in his mind,
the anger of which any man who has contributed
to the production of this uneasiness,
will be the object. This anger there are two
classes of person by whom it will be shared:
the hypocritical knave by whom, with the full
consciousness of it's absurdity, the dogma has
been inculcated, preached, & the miserable dupe by whom for want
of courage to open
his eyes to the absurdity,
it has been embraced.
