Such errors should be corrected by argu- ment, in the arena of public opinion. Where I uttered these words they should have been refuted. The witness against me says he is a preacher ; had he no word in answer ? could he say no word for his God ? No ; he, and those who employ and abet him, shrink from the attempt, and seek to punish in LAST TRIAL BY JURY FOR ATHEISM. 43 this dock opinions they cannot refute. Is this a course becoming those who say that they have truth on their side?
His lordshi...p said " emissaries are going about." I am no emissary, and the term as applied to me is unjust. I might, even by the admission of Mr. Bubb, " undermine " men's reli- gion, go about secretly disseminating my opinions, without danger of standing here. But I spoke openly ; and you who usually have to punish dnhomsty are now called upon to punish its non-committal, for a little lying would have saved me from this charge. I have infringed no law, injured no man's repu- tation, taken no man's property, attacked no man's person, broken no promise, violated no oath, encouraged no evil, taught no immorality — ^set only an example of free speaking.
