Synopsis

This book explores the question of whether granting Home Rule to Ireland would lead to Rome Rule, arguing that it would, thereby leading to corruption, decadence, and ruin. The author, a strong Protestant, believes that if Home Rule were granted, the country would come under the complete domination of the priests, resulting in the suppression of Protestantism. The author provides historical examples and draws upon conversations with prominent Irish citizens to support this claim, arguing that the Catholic Church in Ireland has a history of oppressing Protestantism and that it seeks to stamp out all forms of heresy. The book concludes by urging English Nonconformists to oppose any Home Rule measure, as it would ultimately lead to the destruction of religious freedom in Ireland.
