Jonathan Swift's 1700 satire A Tale of a Tub uses the allegory of three brothers (representing Anglicanism, Catholicism, and Protestant dissent) inheriting their father's will and coats to criticize religious deviations from biblical truth. The document analyzes how each brother comes to alter their coat, with Peter (Catholicism) initiating most changes and Jack's reforms (Calvinism) being most enthusiastic. It concludes Swift aimed to show non-Anglican spiritual practices were falsely interpreting scripture, though many readers saw the work as attacking all religion due to its confusing satire.
