The teachers who reformed our religion in Eng. Land bore no fort of refemblance to your prefent reforming doctors in Paris. Perhaps they were (like thofe whom they Oppofed) rather more than could be wilhed under the influence of a party fpirit; but they were molt fincere believers men of the molt fervent and exalted piety; ready to die (as fome of them did die), like true heroes in defence of their particular ideas of Chrifiianity as they would with equal fortitude, and more cheerfully, for that flock of general truth, for the branches of which they contended with their blood. Thefe men would have difavowed with horror thofe wretches who claimed a fellowlhip with them upon no Other titles than thofe of their having pil laged the perfons with whom they maintained con. Troverfies, and their having defpifed the common religion, for the purity of which they exerted them.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the ecclesiastical establishment in France under King Louis XVI. The author provides a detailed account of the seizure of ecclesiastical property, the suppression of monastic orders, and the restructuring of the French clergy during this period. The author argues that the French Revolution's radical treatment of the church was part of a broader pattern of anti-clericalism that had been growing in France for centuries. The book also explores the impact of the revolution on the role of religion in French society, as well as the broader implications of the revolution for the relationship between church and state. The author concludes by arguing that the French Revolution represented a watershed moment in the history of the church, and that its impact is still being felt today.
