The opposition of a few well intentioned but mistaken men has only served had no other effect than to serve as a foil
to others who to intentions equally laudable join add superior wisdom corrupters of Youth
extort a formal surrender of their judgments to be returned to them debilitated by the foul taint of Servitude. It is presumption, to decide peremptorily on points of that sublime and incomprehensible nature:
it is something more than presumption to force a decision upon others under
the alternative of being deprived of the common rights of subjects. Citizens.
It is a weakness to believe that the welfare of mankind is connected more with their unity
in those points than with their dissention, when it is peaceable: To any out subversion of the religion &c as if a child were to cry at not being permitted to at which it had taken disgust. is just as if the Inquisitors Inquest were to cry out complain of the loss of their liberties if the liberty of roasting alive their fellow subjects were taken from them. now the way & the only certain
way to have it peaceable is to have it free.
