Excerpt from The Object and the Effect of the Oath in the Roman Catholic Relief Bill Considered: With Observations Upon the Doctrine of Certain Irish Authorities With Respect to Tithes, And on the Policy of a Concordat With the See of RomeIN the first section of this publication I have endea voured to demonstrate that the securities suggested by me in the year 1829, for the protection of the Church against the possible danger of Roman Catholic legisla tion, did not deserve to be characterised as impractica ble. In the second section, that no justifiable accusa tion or even imputation of perjury can attach to a Roman Catholic Member of Parliament from his vot ing for any resolution or measure which any body of Protestants may deem necessary for the preservation, 'or at least ultimate benefit of, any Church Establish ment. In the third section, that if it can be proved that a Catholic Member of Parliament unequivocally proposes to subvert the present Church Establishment, according to the fair and equitable import of the term, such an attempt is not in accordance with the Oath Which he has taken within the walls of Parliament. In the fourth section, that as Roman Catholics are now admitted into both houses of the Legislature, it is a most necessary act of state policy to negociate with the head of the Catholic Church on Catholic matters.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
