Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Three Letters to the Editor of the Guardian: With a Preliminary Paper on the Extravagance of Certain Allegations Which Imply Some Similarity Between the Anglican Establishment and Some Branch, Existing at Some Period, of the Catholic Church An account of the circumstances which originated the following Letters, will be found in the Preface to the Second Letter. They labour under the defect, so common and so almost unavoidable in productions elicited by the pressure of argument with one particular opponent, a great irregularity in the way of order and arrangement. The Guardian, however, having terminated the controversy, on the very reasonable plea of its unsuitableness to the pages of a newspaper, it seemed better to collect them into one volume: and the object of this Preface is, first, to remedy, as best I may be able, the inconveniences flowing from the above-mentioned defect; and then to develope one particular argument, stated in the Letters, at greater length than the exigencies of the Guardian controversy required. The most methodically arranged portions of my argument, will be found in the sixth section of the Second Letter, and the earlier part of the Final Letter. These pieces of reasoning enjoy also this further advantage, that, in order to their cogency, the admission of no premiss is required, beyond that of the general authenticity and genuineness, on the one hand of the books of the New Testament, on the other hand of the principal works ascribed to the Fathers of the Church. In the first-named of these two portions (Second Letter, pp. 57-83) the "Rule of Faith" is discussed. On this subject there are "two opposite forms of misbelief which exist among earnest and pious minds in England at this moment." The one is that of ordinary Protestants, who consider that the Sacred Writings were put into our hands, in order that each individual might draw from their study his own faith.
