The Self-Plumed Bishop Unplumed / A Reply to the Profound Erudition of the Self-Named Hugh Latimer, in His Doctrine of Endless Punishment Asserted

A minister mounts a point-by-point rebuttal to an anonymous critic writing under a historical pseudonym who defends eternal punishment. He rejects ad hominem attacks and charges of infidelity, defends Unitarian readings of scripture, and analyzes key Greek terms such as aion, aionian, olethron, and kolasis to argue they commonly denote limited, not infinite, duration except when applied to the divine or the blessed. The pamphlet combines rhetorical response to accusations of ignorance, critical lexical and scriptural examination, and a broader defense of doctrinal interpretation against what the author sees as misrepresentation and scurrility.
