Thewhole has emanated from the simplicity of our national character, andfrom a sort of native plainness and directness of understanding, whichfor a long time characterized those men who have successively obtainedauthority among us. This disposition still remains, --at least in thegreat body of the people. We know, and, what is better, we feel inwardly, that religion is thebasis of civil society, and the source of all good, and of allcomfort. [95] In England we are so convinced of this, that the...re is norust of superstition, with which the accumulated absurdity of the humanmind might have crusted it over in the course of ages, that ninety-ninein a hundred of the people of England would not prefer to impiety. Weshall never be such fools as to call in an enemy to the substance of anysystem to remove its corruptions, to supply its defects, or to perfectits construction. If our religious tenets should ever want a furtherelucidation, we shall not call on Atheism to explain them. We shall notlight up our temple from that unhallowed fire.
