avowedly what others have arrogated
to themselves implicitly , the privilege of

and if should any body ask me where and which
they are , I might lay my finger in the
book , and answer , they are there . But Far
from an in a sincere and candid enquirer
after truth be all this quackery , not
to say this blasphemy , this imposture : and
let him remember that if there be one person
who could be justified in not thinking
it no robbery to be equal with God, there
is but one .
