On the Errors of Romanism: In Respect to the Worship of Saints, Satisfactions, Purgatory, Indulgences, and the Worship of Images and Relics The publication of the series of Letters now brought to a conclusion (at least for the present), was undertaken with a view to exhibit some of the most important features of Romanism in their genuine form. This task has become necessary in consequence of the system of Reserve so generally practised by Romish controversialists, in refer ence to the more obnoxious parts of their system. The system referred to, studiously distinguishes the doc trines and practices prevalent in the Roman Communion into two classes the former consisting of matters of faith, or doctrines defined by the Church; the latter consisting of matters of opinion, or doctrines not so defined. The use made of this distinction in all writings and discourses in tended for those who are opposed to Romanism, is to avoid all responsibility for, and all discussion on doctrines of the latter class, by representing them as mere non-essentials, which any member of the Roman Communion may dispute or reject at pleasure; while the attention of Opponents is drawn entirely to the former class of doctrines, which being commonly proposed in general terms and with great caution, are far less assailable.
