A discourse against profane swearing. For Mony, Swear by no God, though you Swear truly; And diverse the like Precepts occur in other Heathens; the mention whereof may well serve to strike Shame into many loose and vain People, bearing the Name of Christians.

Author: WrightA Discourse Against Profane Swearing. For Mony, Swear by No God, Though You Swear Truly; (said Isocrates.) Avoid Swearing, Wholly, If You Can; (said Epictetus.) Forbear Swearing about Any Matter, (said Plato.) And Diverse the Like Precepts Occur in Other Heathens; the Mention Whereof May Well Serve to Strike Shame Into Many Loose and Vain People, Bearing the Name of Christians. It is a Sin, of All Others, Provocative of Divine Judgment: 'tis Very Noxious to Human Society. It Often Brings the Practiser of it Into the Most Horrible Sin of Perjury. False Swearing Naturally Springeth Out of Much Swearing. It Disparages Him that Uses It, and Derogates from His Credit. 'tis Gross Rudeness. And 'tis an Insolent Defiance of the Common Profession, the Religion, the Law of Our Country, which Disalloweth and Condemneth It. See Dr. Barrow's Sermon Against Rash and Vain Swearing

Book Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.
