Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Abduction of Mary Ann Smith: By the Roman Catholics, and Her Imprisonment in a Nunnery, for Becoming a Protestant The Roman Catholic Inquisition, or Holy Office, as it is called, is a tribunal established in Roman Catholic countries to search out and try and punish heretics and those who disobey the law of the Church. It still exists in Spain and in Rome, and both in principle and in practice is now seeking to plant itself upon our shores, and to find toleration and legal recognition under the flag and laws of our glorious Union. For wherever any person, old or young, high or low, is seized, shut up, or in any way punished on account of their religious belief, there the Inquisition is in active operation. And it makes no difference what the age or sex of the victim may be; the principle is the same. No father, or master, or priest, has either a moral or legal right, in this land of freedom, to seek to make his child a Jew or a Christian, a Romanist or a Protestant, by temporal pains and penalties. And it is to prevent the establishment of such a precedent, and to vindicate religious freedom and the rights of conscience, as well as to release an imprisoned and friendless orphan, that the proceedings herein described have been instituted, and the following chapters written.
