A critic argues that church leaders, though individually virtuous, fail in corporate capacity. He claims their faith rests in clerical privileges and immunities, not in God or divine revelation, and warns the church is endangered when these privileges are threatened.
The piece critiques recent clergymen’s outbursts, lauds Dr. Temple’s measured stance against the Irish Establishment, and questions ecclesiastical pride. It mocks Natal bishopric remarks, warns against political Sunday schools, and urges faithful witness free from state meddling.
The meeting chaired by Sir J. P. Shuttleworth hears Rev Dr Temple defend Liberal disestablishment of the Irish Church. He argues for justice to Ireland, questions the value of an Establishment that serves only a fraction of the people, and cites history and religion in urging reform. The crowd applauds as Temple links church and national duty.
