Is it a conclusion of rea- son that gives rise to idol worship? To what then are all the facts connected with adoration referrible? " To the influence of education," says the sceptic ; " and the differences in the elevation of the object worshipped arise from the relative cultivation of the minds of the worship- pers; and the beginning of worship of every kind is ascribable to designing priests." This objection is invalidated by the nature of the facts; for how could the priests have induced su...ch a state of things, unless something exists in the mind of man, leading him to worship ; and why should the priests have chosen this method of bringing their fellow-men over to their pur- poses, unless they had been convinced that, in man, a powerful tendency to worship some Being exists ? However, the infidel strenuously maintains his explanation of the facts, which he considers as exhibitive of the influence of educa- tion.
