Proofs of a Conspiracy: Against all the Religions and Governments of Europe (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781726202718)

Proofs of a Conspiracy Against all the Religions and Governments of Europe, Carried on in the secret meetings of free masons, illuminati, and reading societies. Collected from good authorities, By John Robison, a. M. The THIRD EDITION. 1798. Were this all, the harm would not be great. But long before good opportunities had occurred for spreading the refinements on the simple Free Masonry of England, the Lodges in France had become places of very serious discussion, where opinions in morals, in religion, and in politics, had been promulgated and maintained with a freedom and a keenness, of which we in this favoured land have no adequate notion, because we are unacquainted with the restraints which, in other countries, are laid on ordinary conversation. In consequence of this, the French innovations in Free Masonry were quickly followed in all parts of Europe, by the admission of similar discussions, although in direct opposition to a standing rule, and a declaration made to every newly received Brother, "that nothing touching the religion or government shall ever be spoken of in the Lodge."
