diatribist_n it_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o religion_n and_o superstition_n be_v by_o they_o who_o be_v guilty_a of_o daemon_n worship_n or_o when_o use_v of_o they_o by_o other_o taken_z as_o exact_o synonyma_fw-la word_n import_v the_o same_o thing_n but_o against_o this_o the_o diatribist_n conceive_v himself_o out_o of_o these_o very_a section_n to_o have_v gain_v somewhat_o to_o object_n it_o seem_v say_v he_o the_o heathen_n do_v oft_o take_v the_o word_n in_o a_o ill_a sense_n and_o brand_v religion_n which_o they_o do_v not_o like_a by_o that_o name_n plutarch_n tax_v the_o jew_n for_o their_o superstition_n in_o two_o thing_n remarkable_a 1._o that_o when_o invade_v they_o will_v not_o rise_v from_o their_o seat_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n which_o be_v excess_n against_o the_o 4_o commandment_n and_o gross_a superstition_n 2._o their_o kill_a and_o sacrifice_v their_o child_n to_o moloch_n which_o be_v a_o horrid_a superstition_n be_v as_o the_o former_a intend_v as_o a_o worship_n to_o the_o true_a god_n and_o yet_o be_v interpret_v no_o better_a than_o sacrifice_v to_o devil_n psal_n 106._o 37._o which_o though_o in_o other_o respect_v it_o be_v against_o the_o first_o commandment_n gross_a idolatry_n so_o in_o make_v it_o a_o worship_n of_o the_o true_a god_n when_o he_o command_v it_o not_o neither_o come_v it_o into_o his_o heart_n as_o somewhere_o he_o say_v it_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o superstition_n against_o the_o 2_o commandment_n conclude_v in_o a_o word_n that_o the_o etymologist_n speak_v full_o his_o sense_n the_o word_n among_o the_o heathen_a be_v take_v for_o a_o good_a thing_n but_o among_o christian_n for_o impiety_n how_o solid_a this_o way_n of_o object_v be_v will_v now_o soon_o be_v discern_v 1._o by_o remember_v in_o the_o general_n that_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o §_o the_o testimony_n bring_v by_o i_o in_o those_o section_n be_v judge_v to_o be_v to_o little_a purpose_n but_o to_o cloud_v the_o business_n and_o lead_v man_n away_o in_o a_o mist_n and_o yet_o now_o he_o can_v express_v kindness_n to_o some_o of_o the_o testimony_n as_o think_v they_o may_v be_v useful_a to_o his_o pretension_n which_o assure_v i_o all_o the_o other_o may_v have_v be_v capable_a of_o the_o like_a favour_n and_o friendly_a reception_n from_o he_o if_o they_o can_v any_o way_n have_v be_v persuade_v to_o do_v he_o service_n 2_o to_o the_o heathen_n take_v the_o word_n in_o a_o ill_a sense_n the_o answer_n be_v most_o obvious_a so_o they_o do_v religion_n too_o and_o indifferent_o either_o when_o either_o they_o that_o speak_v be_v epicurean_o enemy_n to_o all_o religion_n or_o when_o the_o religion_n they_o speak_v of_o be_v dislike_v by_o they_o and_o so_o sure_a that_o prove_v nothing_o for_o the_o diatribist_n 3_o this_o be_v the_o answer_n also_o to_o what_o be_v observe_v from_o plutarch_n for_o he_o speak_v of_o the_o religion_n which_o he_o dislike_v the_o jewish_a be_v one_o of_o they_o and_o particular_o their_o observation_n of_o sabbatick_a rest_n to_o the_o ruine_v their_o city_n which_o he_o think_v their_o religion_n have_v bind_v they_o to_o and_o never_o dream_v that_o they_o have_v mistake_v their_o religion_n or_o that_o their_o 4_o commandment_n allow_v they_o great_a liberty_n 4_o that_o plutarch_n mention_n the_o kill_a and_o sacrifice_v of_o child_n he_o take_v that_o also_o for_o a_o part_n of_o some_o man_n religion_n and_o think_v he_o have_v reason_n to_o be_v dissatisfy_v with_o it_o and_o to_o make_v it_o a_o instance_n of_o the_o quantum_fw-la religio_fw-la potuit_fw-la how_o much_o evil_a religion_n do_v in_o the_o world_n still_o make_v no_o distinction_n betwixt_o religion_n and_o superstition_n but_o here_o by_o the_o way_n the_o diatribist_n have_v a_o little_a mistake_v in_o think_v that_o this_o bloody_a worship_n in_o sacrifice_v their_o child_n to_o moloch_n be_v as_o the_o former_a i._n e._n as_o that_o of_o the_o strict_a judaical_a rest_n in_o time_n of_o invasion_n intend_v as_o a_o worship_n to_o the_o true_a god_n certain_o moloch_n be_v no_o true_a god_n but_o a_o false_a the_o abomination_n of_o the_o child_n of_o ammon_n 1_o kin._n 11._o 7._o and_o 2_o kin._n 23._o 13._o thought_n by_o learned_a man_n to_o be_v a_o deify_v king_n of_o the_o egyptian_n and_o so_o a_o

to_o moloch_n that_o false_a god_n leu._n 20._o 2_o 3_o 4._o or_o the_o make_v their_o son_n and_o daughter_n pass_v through_o the_o fire_n to_o moloch_n jer._n 32._o 45._o and_o so_o no_o way_n intend_v to_o the_o true_a god_n and_o whereas_o he_o say_v this_o be_v interpret_v no_o better_a than_o sacrifice_v to_o devil_n psal_n 106._o 37._o it_o be_v strange_a he_o shall_v not_o see_v or_o acknowledge_v that_o it_o be_v a_o downright_a sacrifice_v to_o moloch_n a_o daemon_n and_o not_o as_o to_o the_o true_a god_n but_o then_o he_o can_v have_v have_v no_o pretence_n to_o make_v it_o a_o act_n of_o uncommanded_a worship_n and_o so_o such_o a_o kind_n of_o superstition_n as_o be_v chargeable_a on_o our_o christmas_n festival_n and_o then_o he_o have_v lose_v all_o the_o advantage_n which_o this_o instance_n be_v to_o bring_v in_o to_o he_o towards_o this_o he_o think_v to_o reap_v some_o benefit_n by_o that_o text_n of_o scripture_n he_o command_v it_o not_o neither_o come_v
