"James Gordon Bennett, editor of New York Herald, wrote in response to the 1850 Women’s Rights Convention.
The new dispensation of Lucretia Mott and the philosophers, proposes:
To dispense with Christianity and the Bible. After an experiment of nineteen centuries, they declare the system to be a humbug.
To abolish the existing political and social system of society as part of the false machinery of the age.
To put all races, sexes and colors upon a footing of perfect equality. The convention having proved by phrenology and biology that, the sexes are equal in point of intellect, and that color is a mere difference of complexion, it is proposed to abolish the only distinction of sex by a universal adoption of breeches. . . .
Old things are to be done away with, and all things are to become new. Seward is to be sustained, and [President Millard] Fillmore is only to be tolerated till the advent of the new dispensation, when Lucretia Mott, Abby Kelly, Douglas, Greeley and Sojourner Truth are to rule the roast. Then, and not till then, shall we realise the jubilee of the Devil and his angels."
Question: To what does Bennett compare Lucretia Mott and other defenders of women’s rights?
