To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Even in this country, where there is the least possible amount of connection be- tween Church and State — some points are assumed, and must of necessity be assumed, by the State. For instance, the officers employed in the administration must either keep or violate the Christian Sabbath. And the nation must have a law upon the subject. If that law regards the day as holy, then, in so far it adopts the doctrine of the Church: if not, then, it may require, and in some cases it will require its cit...izens, if they are members of the Church, to violate their consciences by continuing in secular occupations which the laws have required regardless of the day. The laws of our country recognise this day, notwith- standing the many Jews, Seventh-Day Baptists and infidels, who differ from the Church in their religion on this point. Our Congress, also, adjourn for Christ- mas and the Holy Days connected therewith, notwith- standing the fact that neither Pres.byterians, nor Bap- tists, nor Methodists — thei most numerous denomina- tions in our country — regard them as Holy Days at 300 THE CHURCH ffiENTIFIED.
