will_v such_o a_o man_n breed_v in_o those_o who_o either_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o education_n or_o upon_o some_o other_o account_n be_v ignorant_a of_o the_o true_a condition_n of_o christian_a

so_o holy_a i_o say_v again_o which_o may_v not_o easy_o be_v traduce_v shall_v god_n permit_v dr._n st._n as_o certain_o he_o may_v to_o declare_v himself_o a_o jew_n or_o a_o atheist_n he_o have_v already_o lay_v up_o good_a store_n of_o argument_n wherewith_o according_a to_o his_o manner_n of_o proceed_v to_o traduce_v christianity_n father_v upon_o the_o christian_a religion_n all_o the_o horrible_a sin_n that_o ever_o have_v be_v commit_v by_o any_o christian_n whatsoever_o protestant_n or_o catholic_n and_o if_o he_o shall_v want_v matter_n to_o fill_v up_o his_o volume_n as_o follow_v this_o way_n of_o attacking_z his_o adversary_n he_o scarce_o ever_o can_v he_o may_v suppose_v christian_n either_o to_o teach_v crime_n which_o they_o do_v not_o teach_v or_o what_o they_o do_v teach_v to_o be_v crime_n which_o be_v the_o way_n he_o common_o take_v to_o oppugn_v roman_a catholic_n since_o therefore_o the_o same_o topic_n and_o reason_n draw_v from_o they_o wherewith_o dr._n st._n endeavour_n to_o traduce_v the_o particular_a tenet_n of_o the_o roman_a religion_n may_v without_o difficulty_n be_v level_v against_o the_o general_a principle_n of_o christian_a

that_o bias_v he_o that_o way_n whence_o i_o affirm_v that_o have_v the_o same_o passion_n of_o interest_n bias_v he_o against_o christian_a religion_n which_o make_v he_o so_o malicious_a against_o the_o roman_a it_o be_v very_o credible_a that_o he_o will_v have_v show_v himself_o as_o peevish_a against_o the_o one_o as_o the_o other_o all_o this_o i_o have_v say_v to_o signify_v what_o it_o

the_o same_o or_o the_o like_a may_v be_v allege_v in_o defence_n of_o socinianism_n and_o other_o heresy_n condemn_v as_o such_o by_o protestant_n see_v the_o guide_n in_o controversy_n discourse_v 4._o nor_o oppose_v any_o thing_n against_o the_o roman_a religion_n but_o the_o same_o or_o the_o like_a may_v be_v object_v by_o jew_n or_o pagan_n against_o the_o christian_a which_o according_a to_o scripture_n be_v a_o scandal_n to_o the_o former_a and_o a_o derision_n to_o the_o latter_a so_o that_o whoever_o will_v be_v please_v to_o reflect_v serious_o upon_o his_o discourse_n he_o may_v clear_o see_v that_o his_o proof_n for_o protestancy_n will_v assoon_o make_v one_o a_o socinian_n as_o a_o protestant_n and_o his_o objection_n against_o catholic_n will_v assoon_o make_v one_o no_o christian_n as_o no_o catholic_n and_o what_o do_v the_o dr._n answer_v to_o all_o this_o all_o that_o he_o can_v which_o be_v just_o nothing_o not_o take_v so_o much_o as_o notice_n of_o the_o forementioned_a word_n although_o they_o contain_v two_o main_a point_n which_o be_v prove_v at_o large_a by_o several_a catholic_n author_n and_o do_v utter_o enervate_v whatsoever_o dr._n st._n bring_v for_o himself_o or_o against_o we_o and_o do_v moreover_o force_v the_o dr._n himself_o to_o salve_v whatever_o he_o produce_v against_o catholic_n if_o he_o will_v be_v a_o christian_n and_o to_o confess_v the_o inanity_n of_o whatever_o he_o allege_v for_o protestant_n as_o such_o if_o he_o will_v not_o be_v a_o socinian_n the_o first_o point_n be_v that_o he_o allege_v nothing_o in_o defence_n of_o protestancy_n as_o protestancy_n which_o may_v not_o be_v allege_v and_o with_o the_o same_o force_n too_o in_o vindication_n of_o socinianism_n or_o any_o other_o heresy_n this_o point_n have_v be_v discuss_v at_o large_a by_o those_o two_o famous_a and_o solid_a divine_n the_o author_n of_o protestancy_n without_o principle_n and_o the_o guide_n in_o controversy_n disc_n 4._o now_o quote_v wherein_o be_v contain_v a_o plea_n between_o a_o protestant_n and_o a_o socinian_n and_o although_o dr._n st._n have_v have_v at_o last_o the_o courage_n to_o offer_v at_o a_o answer_n to_o the_o forementioned_a book_n yet_o he_o have_v not_o dare_v to_o touch_v this_o point_n which_o be_v no_o small_a confirmation_n of_o the_o opinion_n some_o have_v conceive_v that_o dr._n st._n be_v a_o socinian_n and_o yet_o the_o church_n of_o england_n look_v upon_o socinian_o as_o heretic_n the_o second_o point_n be_v that_o dr._n st._n produce_v nothing_o against_o the_o particular_a tenet_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n but_o the_o same_o or_o the_o like_a may_v be_v object_v by_o jew_n turk_n pagan_n or_o libertin_n against_o the_o common_a principle_n of_o christianity_n neither_o be_v he_o ignorant_a but_o that_o some_o pagan_n look_v upon_o our_o scripture_n as_o fable_n no_o less_o than_o dr._n st._n look_v upon_o the_o legend_n of_o our_o saint_n as_o such_o the_o jew_n also_o deny_v the_o new_a testament_n and_o the_o turk_n make_v our_o scripture_n to_o truckle_n under_o to_o their_o alcoran_n this_o point_n be_v solid_o discuss_v in_o that_o erudite_fw-la book_n reason_n and_o religion_n and_o although_o the_o dr._n pretend_v to_o answer_v it_o yet_o he_o prudent_o wave_v this_o point_n or_o very_o slight_o touch_v it_o spend_v the_o far_o great_a part_n of_o his_o answer_n in_o scoff_v at_o the_o miracle_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n even_o those_o which_o have_v be_v authentical_o approve_v in_o particular_a by_o she_o in_o the_o canonization_n of_o saint_n think_v this_o a_o fit_a subject_n for_o his_o droll_a wit._n yet_o what_o he_o there_o say_v concern_v this_o argument_n be_v a_o new_a confirmation_n of_o this_o our_o second_o point_n for_o he_o object_n nothing_o material_a against_o the_o miracle_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n but_o the_o same_o or_o the_o like_a be_v or_o may_v be_v object_v by_o libertin_n against_o the_o miracle_n of_o christ_n the_o prophet_n and_o the_o apostle_n as_o the_o same_o author_n in_o his_o late_a reply_n do_v make_v apparent_a yet_o the_o dr._n to_o show_v we_o that_o he_o be_v a_o christian_n say_v pag._n 8._o that_o he_o have_v make_v it_o his_o business_n to_o assert_v the_o truth_n of_o christian_a religion_n in_o a_o large_a discourse_n several_a year_n since_o publish_v by_o he_o but_o to_o this_o he_o himself_o answer_v bring_v the_o example_n of_o vanninus_fw-la who_o write_v for_o providence_n when_o he_o deny_v a_o deity_n pag._n 9_o he_o conclude_v thus_o in_o plain_a term_n i_o know_v but_o one_o way_n to_o satisfy_v such_o as_o you_o be_v but_o i_o will_v keep_v from_o it_o as_o long_o as_o i_o can_v and_o that_o be_v to_o go_v to_o rome_n and_o to_o be_v burn_v for_o my_o faith_n for_o that_o be_v the_o kindness_n there_o show_v to_o those_o who_o contend_v for_o the_o purity_n of_o christian_a religion_n against_o the_o corruption_n of_o the_o roman_a but_o the_o dr._n must_v pardon_v i_o if_o i_o tell_v he_o plain_o that_o i_o can_v believe_v he_o will_v ever_o be_v burn_v for_o defend_v the_o particular_a tenet_n of_o the_o protestant_a church_n
