Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from God or Our Country: Review of the Rev. Dr. Putman´s Discourse, Delivered on Fast Day, Entitled God and Our Country Neither the delivery of this Sermon by Dr. Putnam, nor its publication at the request of his congregation, is any matter of astonishment to Abolitionists. They are altogether too familiar with the many similar instances, on the part of ministers, either of incapacity to see the truth or faithlessness in its utterance, to be astonished at the course followed by Dr. Putnam on this occasion. They well remember that one eminent clergyman defends capital punishment from the command "thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself" - and that another - an eminent Bishop, from the command "whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, do ye even so unto them," supports the system of slavery, and argues to the poor ignorant slaves that God requires them to serve their masters faithfully and honestly, and never to murmur at their condition! Though not astonished, we see many reasons for regretting the position assumed by Dr. Putnam. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
