The Irish Convert: Or Popish Intolerance Illustrated is a book written by William Lupton and originally published in 1849. The book is a detailed account of the author's personal experience as an Irish Catholic who converted to Protestantism, and the various forms of intolerance and persecution he faced from the Catholic Church and its followers.Lupton's narrative is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of his conversion and the circumstances surrounding it. He describes the social and political climate of Ireland in the mid-19th century, where religious tensions between Catholics and Protestants were high and often led to violence and discrimination.The author also provides a historical context for his conversion, discussing the origins and development of Catholicism in Ireland and its relationship with the Protestant Church. He argues that the Catholic Church's dogmatic teachings and rigid hierarchy were incompatible with his personal beliefs and values, and that his conversion was a necessary step towards spiritual liberation and intellectual freedom.Throughout the book, Lupton highlights the various forms of intolerance and persecution he faced as a result of his conversion, including social ostracism, verbal abuse, and physical violence. He also criticizes the Catholic Church's role in perpetuating these forms of intolerance, arguing that their strict adherence to tradition and dogma has led to a culture of intolerance and closed-mindedness.Overall, The Irish Convert: Or Popish Intolerance Illustrated is a powerful and thought-provoking account of one man's journey towards religious and intellectual freedom, and a scathing critique of the intolerance and persecution that often accompanies religious dogmatism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
