III. The LOT of the POOR in the EIGHTEEN CENTURY
The work of Joseph Townsend (1786) entitled: "A Dissertation on the Poor Laws" states: "Our poor laws are not only unjust, oppressive, and impolitic, nor am they merely by accident in inadequate to the purpose for which they were designed; but they proceed upon principles which border on absurdity, as professing to accomplish that which, in the very nature and constitution of the world, is impracticable." (1786) Townsend concludes by acknowledging that changes for the better are indeed possible as he relates his knowledge of a parish located in the West of England which he states "has never wanted poor, and in which, excepting for one short period, the poor have never wanted work" and yet he also notes that their poverty and their misery have both been "uniformly advanced constantly, outstripping all efforts which have been made to provide for their distress." (1786)
SUMMARY and CONCLUSION
Indeed the Eighteenth century was one in which the injustices of society were openly critiqued as never before on a worldwide basis. These open critiques set the tone for the many discussions of societal justice, which followed in the Nineteenth century and propelled real changes in society.

His philosophical method of questioning first called into question accepted truths about the nature of human learning and then began to question society's overvaluation of aristocratic social and political hierarchies, and the presumption that one religion was innately better than another religion. However, as politics began to retreat from the English national consciousness, as the monarchy and religious debate appeared to reach an easier truce, a new aristocratic influence became
