CHAPTER V. THIS OPPOSITION IS UNREASONABLE AND UNSCRIPTURAL

It shall now be shown that this hostility of the Church of Rome to the free use and general circulation of the Scriptures is unreasonable and unscriptural. One of our countrymen has well said: "I wonder, and have always wondered that the Catholics, in prohibiting the free use and circulation of the Scriptures, did not except St. Peter's epistles. Was ever any Catholic forbidden to read the letters of a Pope! I believe not. But if they may and should read the Encyclical Letters of the Popes, why not let them read the General Epistles' of the first of Popes, Peter? Why is it any more criminal to read the letters of Pope Peter than those of Pope Gregory? I cannot explain this."
