Doctrine of the Trinity Act 1813
The Doctrine of the Trinity Act 1813 was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. It amended the Blasphemy Act 1697 in respect of its Trinitarian provisions. The Blasphemy Act applied only to those educated in or having made profession of the Christian religion.
The Act, passed July 21, was also variously known as the 'Unitarian Relief Act ', 'The Unitarian Toleration Bill', and 'Mr William Smith's Bill'.
The Act granted toleration for Unitarian worship, as previously the Toleration Act 1689 had only granted toleration to those Protestant dissenters who accepted the Trinity.
The Blasphemy Act was repealed in 1967, implicitly taking the Doctrine of the Trinity Act with it.
