Excerpt from The British Controversialist, Vol. 1: And Impartial Inquirer; Established for the Purpose of Forming a Suitable Medium for the Deliberate Discussion of Important Questions in Religion, Philosophy, History, Politics, Social Economy, Etc It appears necessary at the commencement of our work that we should pledge ourselves to the course we intend to pursue with respect to all controversy conducted in our pages and we therefore state, once for all, that that course will be one of strict neutrality.
