. 4. Churchmen's Sinister interest

In these circumstances it is the intrest of the Churchman to do what he can towards supporting and propagting the following opinions

1. That where /in a case /cases// insincerity may to an unlimited extent be practiced without possibility of detection, especially for /particularly to/ any such purpose as that of punishment or general dishonour /disrepute/, rewards attached to the practice of such insincerity, rewards rising as high as to[?] [...?] [...?] several times greater than what is allotted to /in/ a [...?] by whom the whole business of the [...?] is directed, have no tendency to produce insincerity /it/;

2. - or else that money which in the event of a certain course of conduct being conformed to is bestowed, and in the event of its not being conformed to is not bestowed does not operate as /[...?] in the character/ a reward to engage men to pursue such /give brith to such/ practices.

3. - or else that insicnerity is not a vice but a virtue, and as such fit to be cultivated and promoted.

4. and so in regard to punishment; viz. in so far as om relation to insincerity as above punishment is employed either in addition to or in lieu /place/ of, reward.
