To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Here again, in general terms, the whole account is declared to contain many untruths, but as only three instances are specifically pointed out by the Bishop it is fair to assume that they (transubstantiation, confession, adoration of images) are the most glaring falsehoods. I had warned him that the facts stated by Voltaire were also stated by other authors, and that I used Voltaire for convenience only ; but the indignation aroused by the hated name seems to have caused the Bishop to over- l...ook that fact. I now consult, on these three points, other, and to the Church perhaps less objectionable authorities: and first I quote from the American Encyclopedia, whose article on Voltaire the Bishop called " very moderate and impar- tial, " as to transubstantiation, title " Lord's Supper. " " The first great eucharistic controversy was called forth by a book of Paschasius Radbertus in 831 (De Corpore et Sanguine Domini) in which he advanced the doctrine that the substance of the consecrated bread and wine in the eucharist was changed into the very body of Christ which was born of the Virgin.
