Papist pamphleteer attacked in British religious debate
A critique denounces a pamphlet defending Popery as trifling and impudent. It cites historical Catholic publications and argues the author shows bias, asserts that Popery breeds tyranny, and urges liberties for Protestants. The piece questions the author’s understanding of religion and governance while defending established church law.
