UNITARIAN ACADEMY AT YORK . To the Editor of the Monthly Repository . Sir , The enquiry of the C ( Accidental Discoverer" in your number for last month ( January . Vol . 11 . p . 56 . ) has given me the greatest pleasure , both as it h ) rings to light a new friend to the cause of genuine unadulterated Christianity , which I consider as the cause of truth , and therefore inseparably interwoven with the best interests of man ; and also as it supplies an opportunity of communicating to himself

Sherlock's time 16 QO , &c , there is little said about him . lit Pierce's Controversy , in the year 1719 , he is past over inuneglect . In the present Controversy between Badcock , Horsley , and Priestley , the Holy Ghost has very great reason to complain of the clerical disrespect shewn him by these zealots . If the Son be but exalted to a level with his father , or , rather , exalted above his Father , they do not care what becomes of the fag end of their mystery . There is no prayer or praise addressed to
the Holy Ghost in Scripture . This is unaccountable , if he is co-equal , and co-eternal , and as great as any . of them , A tjiine is fast approaching , when the Athanasian chymistry will be held in equal abhorrence as the doctrine of Transubstantiation . How infinitely superior in good sense is the Creed of Mahomet , to the Creed of nkodern Christians ! That impostor inculcated upon all his followers the Doctrine of the divine Unity , solemnly assuring them that this great Being had no
partner . He exhorts them to contend tor this great fundamental Article , and detest Christians for their departure from it . Mahomet arose at the time when the Churches of Asia were clamouring Consubstantiality , Coessentiality , triune Relation , mutual Circumplection ; and when no stranger in Constantinople could buy a loaf of bread , of a pound of any thing , but he was interrogated , if he believed the Son to be consubstantial with the Father . Mahomet arose , and wiped this corrupt and corrupting mummery from the Eastern Churches , and established the Doctrine of the supreme Unity . Though Mahomet was an impostor , yet surely his Religion inculcates the primary and capital Article of all Religion , the peerless Majesty of one supreme Being .
I have written this in a hurry , but it flows from a sincere and upright heart , which never dissembled in matters of Religion . You may make what use of it yoM please ; only believe me , my worthy and sensible neighbour , to be Hyde Street , Your sincere friend , Bloomsbury , Nov . 7 , 1786 . Edward Harwood ,
