Observations On Tithes - William Hales - Bog

Observations On Tithes: Showing The Inconveniences Of All The Schemes That Have Been Proposed For Altering That Ancient Manner Of Providing For The Clergy is a book written by William Hales and published in 1794. The book presents a detailed analysis of the system of tithes, which is an ancient way of providing for the clergy. Hales argues that the various schemes that have been proposed to alter this system are not practical and would cause more harm than good. He provides a historical overview of tithes and their role in society, and examines the various alternatives that have been suggested, including a tax on land, a voluntary contribution system, and a system of endowments. Hales concludes that the current system of tithes, while imperfect, is the best way to provide for the clergy and maintain the stability of the Church. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the debate over tithes in the late 18th century.To Which Is Annexed, A Second Edition Of The Moderate Reformer.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
