William Penn [SEP] Persecutions and imprisonments
Penn's first of many pamphlets, "Truth Exalted: To Princes, Priests, and People" (1668), was a criticism of all religious groups, except Quakers, which he perceived as the only true Christian group living at that time in England. He branded the Catholic Church as "the Whore of Babylon", defied the Church of England, and called the Puritans "hypocrites and revelers in God". He also lambasted all "false prophets, tithemongers, and opposers of perfection". Pepys thought it a "ridiculous nonsensical book" that he was "ashamed to read". In 1668 Penn was imprisoned in the Tower of London after writing a follow-up tract entitled "The Sandy Foundation Shaken".
