A fragment from a religious discourse dated Nov 20 1807 contrasts belief and affection with reason. It quotes Bishop Taylor on religion being learned by the heart, notes atheistic contempt for prayer, and urges peace among true believers despite differences.
The piece explains that early Christians allowed public addresses on divine topics after prayer but found them often incoherent, leading to a law requiring speakers to read a Scripture passage first and ensure their discourse arises from that text. It notes both churchgoers and dissenters misused readings by presenting unrelated topics and Doctrine.
