Excerpt from Half-Hours With the Best Authors, Including Biographical and Critical Notices, Vol. 4 of 4 [Dr Thomas Sherlock, one of the most eminent divines of the last century, was born in 1678; died in 1761. His father, Dr William Sherlock, was Master of the Temple, his writings were very numerous, and amongst them that entitled A Practical Discourse concerning Death was long a popular work. During this long life he was an indefatigable preacher and defender of Christianity. He was successively Master of the Temple, Bishop of Bangor, of Salisbury, and of London.] Had it t been for philosophy, there had remained perhaps footsteps of any unbelievers in this great article; for the sense of nature would have directed all right; but philosophy misguided many. For those who denied immortality, did t deny the common sense of nature, which they felt as well as others; but they rejected the tice and thought it false, because they could t find physical causes to support the belief, or thought that they found physical causes effectually to overthrow it.
