One of the main reasons why the words of Moses and Paul are not taken in their plain sense is their `absurdity.\u2019 But against what article of faith does that `absurdity\u2019 transgress? And who is offended by it? It is human reason that is offended; which, though it is blind, deaf, senseless, godless, and sacrilegious, in its dealing with all God\u2019s words and works, is at this point brought in as judge of God\u2019s words and works! On these same grounds you will deny all the articles of the faith, for it is the highest absurdity by far that God should be man, a virgin\u2019s son, crucified, sitting at the Father\u2019s right hand. It is, I repeat, absurd to believe such things!<\/p>\n
