In favour of such a test, it may be said, that one who believes these great truths, will not be so likely to violate his obligations to his country, as one who disbelieves them; we may have greater confidence in his integrity. But I answer: His making a declaration of such a belief is no security at all.
Van Mons, in his treatise on pears and apples, shows how utterly he disbelieves that the several sorts, for instance a Ribston-pippin or Codlin-apple, could ever have proceeded from the seeds of the same tree. Innumerable other examples could be given.
Her own name on his lips the sound of it dimmed her eyes. "Monsieur Rossignol does not know you. He neither believes nor disbelieves. He said to me that if you wanted consideration, to command him, for in Chaudiere he had heard nothing but good of you. If you stayed, he would see that you had justice not persecution. I saw him two hours ago."
"It's not that alone, madam," screamed Raby, "but, d m it, the little rascal's a scientist, an atheist, a radical, a scoffer! Disbelieves in the Bible, ma'am; is full of this Darwinian stuff about natural selection and descent. Descent, forsooth! In my day, madam, gentlemen were content to trace their ancestors back to gentlemen, and not to monkeys!" "Dear heart, the boy is clever," urged Jael.
"Yet is the creature rational endowed With foresight, hears too, every Sabbath day, The Christian promise with attentive ear, Nor disbelieves the tidings which he hears, ..."
He professes to review my book on the Soul; yet, apparently became he himself disbelieves the doctrine of the Holy Spirit taught alike in the Psalms and Prophets and in the New Testament, he cannot help forgetting that I profess to believe it. He is not singular in his dulness. The Septuagint has the foundry, De Wette has the treasury, with whom Hitzig and Ewald agree.
It is to no purpose, sir, that the magistrate disbelieves what he cannot confute; and if in one instance in a hundred he should be mistaken, and, acting in consequence of his errour, force a freeman into the service, what reparation may not be demanded?
I purposely abstain from applying every illustration, or showing its specific difference regarding our theme. It is better to lead a mind to think for itself than to endeavour to forestall every notion. Another. A Kissoor merchant in Timbuctoo is told of the existence of water hard and cold as marble. All the experience of his nation is against it. He disbelieves.
Weeks in his odd way again put his head on one side: you almost expected him to twitter. "A Unitarian very earnestly disbelieves in almost everything that anybody else believes, and he has a very lively sustaining faith in he doesn't quite know what." "I don't see why you should make fun of me," said Philip. "I really want to know." "My dear friend, I'm not making fun of you.
They really form the majority; if they did not, the people of the earth would have eaten one another alive centuries ago. But though this is surely true, a happy cynicism totally disbelieves in their existence. When a combination of circumstances sufficiently dramatic brings one of them into prominence, he is either called an angel or a fool. He is neither.
