Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Address to the Protestants of the United Kingdom of Every Denomination: And to Those Roman Catholics Whose Religious Opinions Do Not Wholly Overcome a Just Regard; For the Free Constitution of the British Government, for the Independence of Their Country
Is not the proposal to authorize, by law, the exercise of the mighty and supereminent power thus claimed, a power threatening destruction to all who Oppose its authority, ) in effect proposing a revolution in the government of the country; and an immediate revolution, so far as the operation of the measures suggested are proposed to be imme diate in Operation; a revolution destructive of that independence of foreign. Control which the exist ing laws of the country provide; a revolution leading to further, revolution, which may gradually destroy all the provisions by which the form of the British government, as a Protestant government, has been long preserved?
What, too, can be inferred from the prophecy of the approaching destruction of the pestilent heresy, dissent from the Church of Rome, but persecution of such dissenters, with all the vio lence which the vengeance of the Roman Church has excited against dissenters from that church, at different times, in various parts of Europe, and which is now raging in Spain, with the assistance of the holy inquisition.
