to the fact that Hase, Gerard, Gieseler, Fusslin, Brandt, Dorner, and indeed, that the concensus of candid, critical historians clear the Anabaptists of the Munster slander. He adds: “That kingdom has attracted the attention of writers in a remarkable degree because of its excesses; still it was a mere episode of the Reformation, lasting from February, or more strictly, from December, 1534, to the 22d of June, 1535, or about six months in its full organization. But the peaceable Anabaptists — who made it a religious principle to bear no weapons, use no force, love their enemies and suffer all things unresistingly — existed by many tens of thousands, during and after the time in Switzerland, Germany, Moravia, and the low countries. In these distinctive principles they were identical with the Waldenses before them and the noble Mennonites after them.” The late Dr. Philip Schaff, Presbyterian Professor in Union Theological Seminary, and the most prominent church historian of the United States: “The history of the Anabaptists of the Reformation period has yet to be written from an impartial, unsectarian standpoint. f529 The polemical attitude of the reformers against them has warped the judgment of historians. They were cruelly treated in their lifetime by Romanists and Protestants, and misrepresented after their death as a set of heretical and revolutionary fanatics who could not be tolerated in a Christian state. The excesses of a misguided faction have been charged upon the whole body. They were made responsible for the peasant’s war and the Munster tragedy, although the great majority of them were quiet, orderly and peaceful citizens, and would rather suffer persecution than do an act of violence. The Mennonites and regular Baptists of America are the true successors of the Anabaptists of the sixteenth century, and help us to understand and appreciate the latter. The official reports of the proceedings against the Anabaptists are from their enemies, and are more or less colored. The works of Anabaptists are few and scarce.” f530 Of Roger Williams’ departure to America and of the Baptists Palfry, one of the bitter enemies to Baptists, says: “The Baptists many years before his departure had stated and maintained’ the doctrine of religious liberty in the most unqualified terms.” f531 May says of the Baptists: “Renouncing all connection with the State. … separation and isolation were the very foundation of their creed.” f532 Froude says of them: “In their deaths they assisted to pay the purchase money of England’s freedom.” f533 Bancroft says of them:
“The plebeian sect of the Anabaptists, ‘the scum of the Reformation,’ with greater consistency than Luther applied the doctrine to the Reformation to the social relations of life and threatened an end to kingcraft spiritual dominion, tithes and vassalage. They were trodden under foot with foul reproaches and most arrogant scorn; and its history is written in the blood of myriads of the German peasantry; but its principles, safe in their immortality, escaped to Providence.” f534
