More proofs of infants church-membership and consequently their right to baptism, or, A second…

Mark here Reader, 1. Berengarius is not said to deny Infant-baptism, but to overturn it, (that is, by some consequence it's like.) 2. He did not publish this his opinion, but held it unpublished: And how then did Guitmund know it? 3. Was Berengarius as honest or as stout a man as he is supposed, and yet when Infants were daily baptized, would never speak out his thoughts of the evil of it? 4. Either he baptized Infants himself, or not. If he did, was he against it then? What a Knave do they make him that so say? If not, his opinion must needs be published by his practice, when they whose ears could not tolerate it, ⟨p. 375⟩would less tolerate the refusing of their Children's Christening. 5. Was that an honest man that would secretly hold an opinion which he knew he had no Scripture for? 6. Note that even Cassander there tells us, that indeed the Waldenses though agreeing much with the Catharists, did yet both approve and use Infant-baptism, p. 671. and that this error slept till his age when Stork and Muntzer raised it.
