Excerpt from Letters to a Sceptic: On Religious Matters
The name of Balmes is well-known in the Republic of Letters. As philosopher, as polemic, as publicist, he occupies a distinguished place among the writers of the present century. Without counting numerous minor works of his, we have only to mention his "Fundamental Philosophy," his "Protestantism Compared with Catholicism," and his wonderful "Criterion," in proof of our assertion. With these books, however, we have nothing to do at present, as they do not come under our observation just now. Our remarks will be wholly confined to another production of his, called "Letters to a Sceptic."
This volume is not a treatise on, nor an apology of, religion; it is simply a collection of letters written to a sceptic in religious matters.
