Excerpt from The Origin of Britain: As Opposed to Papal Christianity
Native British Christianity as opposed to the Papal system first introduced four hundred and fifty-six years subsequently by Augustine the monk, is here, in readable compass, pre sented to the public. The history of such origin is inseparably blended With the long sustained resistance of our early forefathers to the invasions of their liberties by the greatest empire of antiquity, Wielding against them the military forces of nearly three-quarters of the globe. The events thus recorded have left their moulding power to this day on our constitution in Church and State. The most cursory glance at them is sufficient to demon strate the untenableness of the supposition that Britain is indebted to Germany - a country which has never itself been free - for its free institutions, or to Italy for its Gospel faith. The leading principles of her laws and liberties.
