His view of the doctrines of Christianity, and of its evidence, were such as could not legitimately found him in the ...

The virtues I call apparent are only, properly speaking, vices, which, as they are less frequent than the vices that are opposed to them, and are farther removed from them than the intermediate virtues, are usually held in higher esteem than those virtues.
