I was going to say, what on earth do you call it unchristian for?
Barnaby Rudge - A Tale Of The Riots Of 'Eighty by Dickens, Charles View in context
It seemed to be against the law of nature, by which everything hath a right to liberty; nay, it is even unchristian, for it is not doing what we would be done by; but if I had imagined Miss Sophia would have been so much concerned at it, I am sure I never would have done it; nay, if I had known what would have happened to the bird itself: for when Master Jones, who climbed up that tree after it, fell into the water, the bird took a second flight, and presently a nasty hawk carried it away.
The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling by Fielding, Henry View in context
This wilful world hath not got hold of unchristian Solomon's wisdom yet.
Moby Dick LXVIII-CXXXIV by Melville, Herman View in context
