Note.
The work often referred to in the preceding pages, was written, at first, on a more limited plan than now appears. After a portion was printed, it was perceived that the discussion contained in this volume was indispensable, and the title at first designed for the whole work, became inappropriate to the first portion [pg 371]when issued alone. In making a change, the result has been, that the work has sometimes been advertised by its first name, the Bible and the People, and sometimes by its second name, Common Sense Applied to Religion, and sometimes by both together.
Hereafter, the title of the first volume will be Common Sense Applied to Religion. This volume is the second portion. The final portion, not yet published, will be entitled The Bible Interpreted by Common Sense.
