that article in the plan Of accommodation, which as
serts that earthly legislature tribunal ought or
of right interfere interpose in any wise howso-
ever in the religious and ecclesiastical concerns of
the Colonies the inhabitants of the Continent are
happily united in political creed.n We of opin-
ion that il would be highly imprudent to the risk
OF dividing them by the Introduction OF disputes for
egn to the present controversy especially the dis
cussion Of them can be attended with single
advantage they are points about which mankind
will forever differ and therefore should always, and
at least in times like these be kept out of sight We
are the more confirmed in these sentiments by this
that both this and the former Congress
have cautiously avoided the least hint subjects of
this kind, all the members concurring in adeslre OF
burying all disputes on ecclesiastical points which
have for ages had no other tendency than that OF
banishing peace and charity from the world.
