Second Reformation
The Second Reformation was an evangelical campaign from the 1820s onwards, organised by fundamentalists in the Church of Ireland and Church of England.
==History==
Evangelical clergymen were known as "Biblicals" or "New Reformers". The Second Reformation was most zealously prosecuted in Connacht where it was encouraged by Thomas Plunket, 2nd Baron Plunket,〔(Thomas Plunket )〕 the Anglican Bishop of Tuam, Killala and Achonry. Opposition in the west was led by the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Tuam, John MacHale. The movement endeavoured (unsuccessfully) and in ecumenical terms disastrously, to proselytise amongst the Roman Catholic population of Ireland, frequently by highly dubious means in which material benefits were offered as a reward for conversion.〔Search, A Church of Ireland Journal, Summer 2008, p. 151〕 The occasion of the Great Famine (Ireland) was also seized upon by the "new Reformers". To get food, starving Catholics were obliged to apply to the work house of the local Poor Law union. Conversion was expected upon admittance. Quaker and Irish politician Alfred Webb later wrote:
Conversions exacted under the duress of those circumstances were often not long lived as the convert may not have been acting out of personal conviction.
The Second Reformation was also opposed by moderates in the Church of Ireland. It petered out during the 1860s.
