Profane contemners of Religion, members of the Church.
Prophane contemners of Religion, members of the Churche.
9. The question was, if so many such, were members of any Primitive Church? This the Rejoinder doeth not affirm: but denieth any members of our Church to contemn professedly our Religion. Which I leave to the judgement of every Reader; if he doeth not know some in England, who contemn Religion? I would to God, the Rejoinder were (in this point) on the true part, and and the Replier on the false. But when the practise of Religion is derided on stages, and that derision applauded by so many spectators, when those that make conscience of sin, be they never so conformable, are scorned by so many, as Puritans; when in all Pulpits that are possessed of good Preachers, warning is ordinarily given, of scoffers and scorners at Religion: I think the Rej. will not find so many assenting to this negation, as he shall to the point of Conformity. His meaning is such, that by the same reason, it may be said, there is no professed contemner of all Christian Religion, among the Papists, nor of all Religion, among the Turks.
