SUP- RSTI MON is a kind of inconfiltenr, trilling lcrupulo iiiy It dikovers idelf in a ser vant zeal tor lus matters of in difference, or fmali importance, while things of real weight are overlooked. It lays ilrd's on pra&ites that have no connexion with virtue, and opinions that make no man wiler or better, and have neither evidence to I'upport them, nor ulefuli els to recommend them; and rejects them that have both. In the exprelfive language of lac red *.viir, “ it (trains at a gnat, and 1 wallows a ce.tnel.” It fpri.igs ironi ignorance of men and things, from talk* notions of the i)i<-ty and his government, andj ablurd conceptions of the nature of piety and virtue. It is guid-! e i by me traditions and opinion;! of men, more than by sober ica lon, and plain revelation. It is credulous in loinc favourite mat ters j in others blind to argu ment. It is huffy in us judg ment, and ralh in its conduct ■, vain in its opinion of itleif j fond of lhovv and parade ; attached to a party ; cenlorious of ochers ; and apt to make divilions and lepautions in society, ur.dei pretence of superior wil'dom or lanctiry. It juthiies in its favour ites what it condemns in every body else. It is tierce and malm nant in its temper i ft iff and obiti nate in its femiments and practi ces j much given to complaint of perlecution from others, ye unmercifully cruet towards them, and scrupulous of no meaiures tc make prolelytes, or extirpate op ponents. 1c is dark and i'ufpici ous, gloomy and f'ullen, timo rous and irrelolutc, it fears im aginary evils, trufls in i.r.a girary means of feruritv Ir attempts to commute for the ne gleft of eflrntial duties, by great feveritv, and punctilious exadl nefs in little things labours to placate an offended Deity, and conci rue his favour, by arbitra ry, ui r-quired, ufelels, unavail ing obfcrvances. In a word fu perftit.on fetters the underltand mg, deprtfLs the spirits, embit 'ers the temper, disturbs the pas sions, and spoils the manners.
