A Propoftt for the Propagation of the Blcffcd
Cofpd in all Pagan Countries.
BY what hath been britlly iaid in the Thiul Parrot" thisTrea-
tife concerning the ftace ui Kc'.ig'm in all Countries of the
World, it may luHficientlv appear in general, Tlutthe CbrilUan
Riligmhoi a very Imall exccnr, if cxadiy compared with thole
many and vaft Counrries uhich ar^- whoHy ovcrlpread witli Rtofs
JioUtirSy numerous Mibofimis, and niniv others who tifhcr
know not, or (at Icaft) own not the Biellcil MtJJiah. But more
particularly, this great and lad Truth deth farther appear by the
following calculation, ingeniouUy made by fome, who dividing
the inhabited World into ^o parts, do find that
19 of them \ f Blind and grofs IdoUtfru
6 of them / ) Je^'s, Turh and Saracm.
2 of chem>are polltlTed by < Thole of the Ontl: Church.
r ) Thoie 0^ ^Cbmh of Komc.
5 of them ^ ^ jl,^; I i^fottllmt Cominmon.
Thus Chii'limt) taken tn its largcfi Latitude, bears no greater
proportion to the other grofly falfc Religions, than 5 to 25. This
' melandiolly coniidcration doth force me to bewail the vvotui ne-
j'icft of the befl pait ot the Chrillian Church, for not being fo
tiilieent, as others are, in cndcavoutiag to abolifh Heathenil^
