This response from one of my communicator, deserves some attention...
Dear Gabiel Consider this historical eddy: Marlowe's Atheist Lecture Richard Baines, shortly before Marlowe was murdered, brought a document before the Privy Council, enumerating Marlowe's blasphemies: That the first beginning of Religion was only to keep men in awe. That Christ was a bastard and his mother dishonest. That Christ deserved better to die than Barrabas and that the Jews made a good choice, though Barrabas was both a thief and a murderer. That if there be any God or any good Religion, then it is in the Papists because the service of God is performed with more ceremonies, as Elevation of the Mass, organs, singing men, Shaven crowns etc. That all Protestants are hypocritical asses. That if he [Marlowe] were put to write a new religion, he would undertake both a more Excellent and Admirable method and that all the new testament is filthily written. That St. John the Evangelist was bedfellow to Christ and leaned always in his bosom, that he used him as the sinners of Sodom. That all they that love not tobacco and boys were fools. This earnest fellow was not aware Marlwoe was kidding. Some pele don't have a sense of humor. yours, Matty |
