Hume. RELIGIONS, THE BAD INFLUENCE OF MOST POPULAR, ON MORALITY. It is certain, that, in every religion, however sublime the verbal defini tion which it gives of its divinity, many of the votaries, perhaps the . Greater number, will still seek the Divine favour, not by virtue and . Good morals, which alone can be ac- ceptable to a perfect Being, but either by frivolous observances, by intemperate zeal, by rapturous ec- stacies, or by the belief of mysteri- ous and absurd opinions. ' The least p...art of the Sadder, as well as the Pentateuch, consists in precepts ol morality; and ws may be assured always, that that part was also the least obierved and regarded. When the old Romans were attacked with a pestilence, they never ascribed their sufferings to their vices, or dreamed of repentance and amend- ment. They never thought that they were the general robbers of the world, whose ambition and ava- rice made desolate the earth, and reduced opulent nations to want and beggary. They only created a dic- tator clavis jigendae causa, in order to drive a nail into a door ; and by that means, they thought that they had sufficiently appeased their in- censed deity.
