You cannot distrust either the Bishop's discretion, or his good will. If he were satisfied, we no doubt should be the same." Meynell shook his head. "Not if I know anything of the odium theologicum! Besides, the Miss Nairns of this world pay small attention to bishops.
It is the consequence of his love, the recoil of his heart from the practices and theories which contradicted God's law. Now, far be it from me to say a word which should fan the embers of the odium theologicum into a blaze against either men or opinions.
The tendency of this book, 'Vestiges of the Creation, was, or was then held to be, antagonistic to the arguments from design. Familiar as we now are with the theory of evolution, such a work as the 'Vestiges' would no more stir the ODIUM THEOLOGICUM than Franklin's kite.
And now loaded with all the reproaches that the odium theologicum could suggest, I was cuffed, hunted, and finally driven out of the gates by the serious coachman, to perish on the highway. On recovering from my fright, I found myself at the edge of a dry ditch, where the poor shivering postilion sat lamenting his martyrdom.
