Excerpt from Christianity and Its Influence
Some young men, and some who are not young, think it smart to laugh at religion in general, or at some of its doctrines; and this without having studied the subject in (if at all) more than a very partial and superficial manner. Itrust that there are no such mockers among you. Such mockery, permit me to say, is rude and foolish conceit on the part of any young people who indulge in it, considering that the subject is of transcendent importance, that the religion of Jesus is and always has been very dear to multitudes of the best people everywhere, and that a great host of men of high intellect and great learning have in all ages believed in it.
