Science, for instance, in other words, knowledge, is not the enemy of religion; for, if so, then religion would mean ignorance: But it is often the antagonist of school-divinity. Everybody knows the story of early astronomy and the school-divines.

He counts it not profaneness to be polished with human reading, or to smooth his way by Aristotle to school-divinity. He has sounded both religions, and anchored in the best, and is a protestant out of judgment, not faction; not because his country, but his reason is on this side. The ministry is his choice, not refuge, and yet the pulpit not his itch, but fear.
If he have waded farther in his profession, and would show reading of his own, his authors are postils, and his school-divinity a catechism. His fashion and demure habit gets him in with some town-precisian, and makes him a guest on Friday nights. You shall know him by his narrow velvet cape, and serge facing; and his ruff, next his hair the shortest thing about him.

His education was the best then going; much school-divinity, Aristotelean logic, some Latin classics, no inconsiderable insight into certain provinces of things: and Dante, with his earnest intelligent nature, we need not doubt, learned better than most all that was learnable.
The stranger's nose was no more heard of in the dispute it just served as a frigate to launch them into the gulph of school-divinity and then they all sailed before the wind. Heat is in proportion to the want of true knowledge.
The Inferno of DANTE was caught from the popular superstitions of the age, and had been preceded by the gross visions which the monks had forged, usually for their own purposes. It was from his own age that MILTON derived his greatest blemish the introduction of school-divinity into poetry. In a polemical age the poet, as well as the sovereign, reflected the reigning tastes.
