And fecondly, that the fort of liberty and truth (allowing then'i more names) which our Free-thinkers ufe all their indultry to promote, is defiruetive of that end, viz. Human happi neis: And confequently that fpecies, as fuch, int'tead of bein encouraged or elleemed, merit the detcfiati'on and ab orrence of'all honett men. And in the latl place, I defign to fhew, that under the pretence of ad vancing liberty and truth, they do in reality promo: e the two contrary evils.
