Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Religious Liberty Stated and Enforced on the Principles of Scripture and Common Sense: In Six Essays; Including an Historic Account of the Rise and Progress of Intolerance and Persecution; With Notes and Appendix; To Which Is Now Added, an Essay on the Duty and Importance of Free Communion Among Christian of Every Denomination Of all the doctrines of Christianity, Religious Liberty, though one of the most important, has been one of the last to be understood and acted upon. For more than fifteen hundred years, it was a heresy, abhorred by all sects and parties. The Catholic Church (so called) has never acknowledged it, nor can she, consistently with her own safety; for Religious Liberty produces free enquiry, and free enquiry is admitted, on all hands, to be fatal to the Roman Catholic religion. The Reformers dissented from almost every principle of the church of Rome, but this - the right of persecution: and though Luther and some others thought it rather too much to burn heretics, all agreed that they should be restrained and punished; and, in short, that it was better to burn than to tolerate them. The church of England has burnt Protestants for heresy, and Papists for treason. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
