Samuel Parker (1640-1688) was an English churchman, of strong Erastian views and a fierce opponent of Dissenters. His political position is often compared with that of Thomas Hobbes, but there are also clear differences; he was also called in his time a Latitudinarian, but this is not something on which modern scholars are agreed. During the reign of James II he served as Bishop of Oxford, and was considered by James to be a moderate in his attitude to Catholics.
