Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations, Article Three "Religious Instruction", chapter 3. And this, "The most opulent church in Christendom does not maintain better the uniformity of of faith, the fervour of devotion, the spirit of order, regularity, and austere morals in the great body of the people, than this very poorly endowed church of Scotland. All the good effects, both civil and religious, which an established church can be supposed to produce, are produced by it as completely as by any other."
