To Florus 6.3

Thus one group caters both to pleasure and to fear. Its indulgence travels with the crowds of the arena, circus, or theater, seeking to excuse every disgrace by necessity, which always lightens the blame for what was done, and to avoid the world’s uproar by abandoning its principles. These are the things that win a larger following for the defense of vices. Yet most of that crowd, as I said before, believed that advocates of inherited sin and catholics agreed at least in their account of God.
