He has some* times spoken freely, and in terms of strong dis- approbation of Dr. Taylor's writings, and of the manner in which he had conducted the contro- Tersy. He has also made such statements in regard to his own sentiments, as to convince them that he could not adopt the New Haven opinions. ^ But notwithstanding all this, truth obliges me to say, that, in my apprehension, Dr. Beecher is in a high degree responsible for the spread of these opinions. It is through his influence, more than th...at of any other man, that they have gained so much favor in the eyes of the commu- nity. He has been an apologist for them. He has had no sympathy with those who have been distressed on account of them; but has unir formly frowned on every expression of aliu'm.
He has insisted that the New Havein divines are orthodox, and that their sentiments are fraught with no dangerous tendencies. He has express- ed it as his '' full and deliberate belief," that these sentiments *' will prevail and predominate both in New England and elsewhere." He has occasionally thrown out intimations *' that the theology of New England is running down to natural inability, and old Calvinism — and wait- ing God's time, and formality, and Triangular- ism," — ^that " old Calvinism must go down," — that, " the system of Calvinism needs to be ex- amined and discussed by a new and original investigation of all the points," — and that the 94 'ORIGIN AND PR0GRB8S resttlt will be, '' the sifting out of false philosc phy," and the burning up of *' wood, hay, and stubble,'' enough of which he thinks there is even in New England, '* if brought out and laid on one pile to make a great bonfire." Although I write " currente calamo," I am not writing at ran- dom.
