Excerpt from Works of the Right Reverend William Warburton, D.D., Lord Bishop of Gloucester, Vol. 11 of 12: To Which Is Prefixed a Discourse by Way of General Preface; Containing Some Account of the Life, Writings, and Character of the Author He goes on, - If I am capable of understanding the meaning and drift of his Book, he had reason to appre hend it might draw upon him the censures 0 Clergy who are sincere friends to Christianity - therefore it might be politic to obviate the force Qf such animad versions beforehand. Had I been conscious of deserving the censure Of any honest man, I had done, like those who delight in mischief; I had wounded in the dark. But when I chose to write without a name, it was for very contrary purposes. When I presumed to publish (in defence of the Established Clergy) a vindication of the Church of England, under the title Of The Alliance be tween Church and State, which surely might deserve their pardon, lest the World Should imagine I expected more, I put it out without my name. And now writing in the common cause Of Christianity, I have publicly Owned it. For if ever the suspicion Ofobeing ashamed of the faith of Jesus be more carefully to be avoided at one time than at another, it must certainly be in this, when infidelity is become so reputable as to be esteemed a test of superior parts and discernment.
