KIRWAN UNMASKED. LETTER V. TO KIRWAN, Auias rae Reverenp Nicnonas Murray, D.D.,

Of Elizabethtown, New Jersey. Dear StrR,—

It is deeply to be regretted that the serpent of infidelity was ever per- mitted to nestle in your bosom ;—for when I consider that you reduce the standard of revelation to the test of common sense—when I consider the looseness of your moral principles, so far forth as they are exhibited by your Own pen—when I behold the spirit of Voltaire and Thomas Paine in the profanity and ribaldry with which you treat every sacred subject which your common sense does not approve, I am compelled to say that even on the supposition that infidelity had been expelled from your breast before the writing of your letters, still,

** The trail of tne serpent is over them all.’’

Your moral principles, as set forth by yourself, even in my regard, are

much more in keeping with what might be expected from a skeptic of

the world, than from a clergyman of any Christian denomination. You |

have the grossness to impute to me that I am consciously a deceiver of my fellow-creatures, and yet you do not hesitate to express respect for my character, Is this a principle of Presbyterian inculcation ? Or has it shot up through the Confession of Faith from the older and deeper roct of your early infidelity ?

Again you urge me to renounce the Catholic religion, in which, you suppose, I do not believe; and yet, with that loose morality which would better become a professed infidel, you implicitly encourage me to per- severe in carrying on the supposed villainy of deception! The reader would hardly believe this statement possible, so I shall quote your own words to prove it. You say : “ And since in the maturity of my judgment I have examined this matter, I have commended your wisdom in withholding the Bible from the people. If I were a Bishop or a Priest of your church I would do the same.”"—p. 29. So then, dear Kirwan, you have the candor to avow on prin-iple, and in the *‘ maturity of your judgment,”’ that if your lot had been cast among villains, you would be as great a villain as any ofthem. Is this avowal worthy of even an infidel ?

That you should be where and what you now are, igs easily accounted |

for—by the ignorance of your youth which you have described, and the poverty which you have notdescribed. Ignorance and poverty are mys- terious dispensations of God’s providence. And, on that account, I would treat with indulgence whatever errors in your early life are to be ascribed to either. But for the deliberate conclusions, uttered in your recent letters, and in the “ maturity of your judgment,” in which you avow yourself ready to act an evil part with Bishops and Priests, on the mere condition of your having been one of them, I cannot but hold you zmmorally responsible.

Thank God, however, you are neither a Bishop nor a Priest; and your once having been talked of as a candidate for Maynooth, was, happily for the Church, only “ talk ”’ after all. You are a Presbyterian minister in Elizabethtown, where your ministry can do no harm;—for, if your creed be true, those who are foreordained to eternal life, will be saved with as well as without, your pastoral offices.

In my last letter | showed, according to your own account, that the prohibition te cat flesh meat on Fridays and Saturdays was the first practical reason for your change of religion. It was an ** unreasonable regulation, and you rejected it; and as far as you now remember, this was your first step towards light and freedom.’’—p. 32. On the very next page we find you soliloquizing in a style of infidel rationalism, which Pagan Greece, or Protestant Germany, could hardly have surpass- ed. “Ithus reasoned with myself; God is a spiritual and intelligent Being, and he requires an intelligent worship. What worship I render him in the Mass I know not,’’ (of course, since you had forgotten your eatechism,) “my inteiligent worship only is acceptable to Him, and is beneficial to me. I am a rational being, and I degrade my nature, and insult my Maker, in offering to Him a worship in which neither my reason, nor his intelligence, is consulted.”’ p. 33. Now, dear Kirwan, when we consider the state of your mind at the period when this pretended soliloquy occurred, “‘a perfect blank as to all religious instruction,” it becomes a grave question, which I leave to the decision of casuists in woental philosophy, whether or not, in the higher ordinary sense of the term, you could rightfully call yourself a “ rational being.”

But I make the quotation for another purpose. The whole passage betrays a strong affinity io the spirit of Paine’s “« Age of Reason.” The high contracting parties were God on the one side, and yourself on the other. Both were intelligent beings—your Maker would be insulted, and your nature would be degraded, if you held the intercourse of worship with Him, except on the principle of reciprocal intelligence. You had just tasted of the forbidden food on the preceding page, and acquired the knowledge of “* vood and evil.’” You had partaken of Egypt’s flesh-pots, and the manna had become insipid and distasteful. For your mind, there was no “ iatelligence ”’ in it, and so, very naturally, you gave up —-the Mass.

But now, the floodgates of the knowledge of good and evil being once opened, we inay expect the mysteries of revelation to be inundated by thedeluge of your “ intelligence,” your “* reason,” your * common sense.”’ Accordingly, the adorable mystery of the Christian Eucharist, in treating of which the Pathers of the Church were struck with holy dread and religious awe, is described by you as an “‘ absurdity.”’—(page 35.) So it has always appeared to the animal man.

[I need scarcely inform you, sir, that the infidels of all ages would |

have been quite satisfied, if they had been allowed to construe the Bible according to what they call common sense. In reference to this standard, they and you appear to be perfectly agreed. Thus, you make the Bible and common seuse the ultimate tribunals in the decision of religious belief. Thus, in the exercise of common sense, you no doubt deny the Divinity of Christ implicitly, at least, since you call it “ blasphemous ”’ to designate the ever glorious and Blessed Virgin Mary, “‘as the Mother of God.”” If the Person of Christ was simply Divine, and Mary was truly bis mother, she is, and has been always called, Mother of God, as well as mother of man; and ycur denial of this can be logically sustained, only by your denial of the Saviwour’s Divinity. In fact, [ suppose your “commen sense ”’ has already pronounced against the mystery of the Incarnation. Thus also, you take sides with the infidels of the Redeemer’s age, as well as of our own, and you tell us, in spite of the evidence furnished by Hii in His human character, and assert that Gop only can forgive sins.—(page 67.) In the spirit cf a trux infidel, you describe the priesthood of the Catholic Churez, throughout the world, and for eighteen centuries, as having been actuated solely by the love of money —(page 70. Avxain still, in the spirit of the infidel, you sneer at the history of religion as counter to your appeal to “common sense,” and tell us, that “with you the authority of our popes and councils are not worth a penny ’’—(page 70.)

The angel Gabriel saluted the blessed Virgin Mary, as the Scripture records, ‘* Hail Mary, full of grace;” but you, the Presbyterian minister of Elizabethtown, speak of her as you would of a female selling candies at the corners of the street, from whom you had just bought a supply for the young Kirwans, and call her the “ good woman ” condescendingly ~——(page 74.) ‘be holy Eacharist under your “‘ commor sense,’’ you declare to be so “* absurd as to defeat itself ”"—(page 75.) You uecide that the words, ‘‘ This is my body,”’ mean, this is not my body, and with that sweiling venity peculiar to an evangelical minister who takes “common sense ”’ as his rule for interpreting holy scripture, you exhibit your sleight of hand with a puff of self-complacency, and ca!l upon us to admire—* just sce how a little common sense <implifies everything ’’— (page 76.)

Lest I should interpose by venturing to suggest that a thing ought to

| But detail is unnecessary. The high mysteries of the Christian faith you reduce to the standard of ‘‘ common sense,” on almost every page. | Thus: ‘‘ Extreme unction,”” ycu have already pronounced “ extreme |nonsense.”’ Page 82. | ‘How simple and ‘ common sense ” is all this,”—-(S. S. Page 27.) | “ Blessed be God, you have not turned your keys onthe ‘common)| sense ’ of the world.’’--(page 29.) Of your infidel ribaldry I will give but one specimen, which I think can hardly be surpassed in the axnals | of sneering skepticism. ‘ Your daily changing of a wafer into the real | | body of Christ, and then eating him, beats anything St. Fechin ever | did. Your preparing an old sinner for heaven by rubbing him with | | olive oil, and then opening its gates to him by the keys which are only | | in your possession, far surpasses Fechin’s turning acorns to pork. We) | believe the swine themselves are constant!y doing this in our Western | | woods.”’——(page 39.) You tell us that the respect entertained by | | Catholics for relics has the ¢rue relic for its object—and that, on Catholic | principles, ‘‘ it is all the same ”’ that the object of reverence or respect | should be the head of “ St. Paul”? or the head of “ Balaam’s Ass;” and | you add in your own name, and with a sneer becoming an infidel, ‘‘ and | | I suppose the difference, sir, is very little,”’—(page 70.) So then, Rev. | | Nicholas Murray, you regard tae head of an ass and that of an apostle | with equal respect; for the reason, no doubt, that in your estimation, | both are figuratively of the same species, or perhaps that in this instance | both are scriptural subjects. It seems the Tract Societies and Sunday Schools have adopted your | letters, and given them a very extensive circulation. I do not know aj shorter method of turning the young who may be subject to their training | into infidels, than by placing such a book in their hands. Each of their pupils has as good a right to explain the Bible according to what he will call ‘common sense,’? as you have had. But they will not be restrained in their blasphemous ribaldry by the limits which a black coat and a white cravat have prescribed for your pen. They will apply the arguments of “ common sense *’ whieh you have | wielded against Baptism and the Holy Eucharist, to the antecedent | doctrines of original sin, and the atonement, and they will find no “ common | sense ” in either. But why should [ moralize for you on such a subject, when I have no evidence to prove that such a result has not been the | very object of your letters; and that your zeal against Popery is not | /merely the gilding of the infidel pill which you would wish to see

| swallowed by tract distributors, Sunday school teachers, Sunday -school children, and all. -

Sir, the language and sentiment which I have had to pass under | review in this letter are so unworthy of a man professing Christianity, | that I must withhold, at its close, even the expression of my pity for | you, whilst I cherish towards you as usual good wishes and good-will.

+ JOHN HUGHES, Bishop of New York.
