Deontology Private
Reasons against producing uneasiness by discourse, except as excepted.
☞ Take this for a topic in a separate sheet. Maybe the same as those
which apply to the of at large or which ever
Uneasiness may be produced in man by man – in
1. by acts at large. 2. by discourse – even by such acts
in particular by which discourse is produced
Uneasiness in so far as produced by discourse forms the
subject of the present head.
1 Rule General Rule 1 Whatever you are about to say
consider in the first place whether the eff among the effects
of it may not be the producing uneasiness in some shape
or the breach of those some one or more
persons in whose minds the ideas conveyed by it may
be produced
Discourse is either conveyed by infor
or by permanent signs: in when as by in ordinary commonly
speaking in that is by word of mouth when permanent as usually by writing or printing.
Word of mouth discourse being the sin most most simple
and the only original mode with this let us commence.
And in the first place let it be to one person alone
that the ideas thus expressed are communicated.
That person may be either present at the utterance of the discourse
2 Effects 2. or absent. If among its probable effects be that of producing
uneasiness as above, consider what in the next
place whether to the by against that same uneasiness
in the account of good and evil against in compensation for the uneasiness
so produced there be some good may not be
produced in some shape or shapes in which it will
be preponderant in value with reference to such the uneasiness. More briefly thus. If uneasiness be among the probable effects
of it, the consider then whether the uneasiness may not be
compensated for by some greater good by a more than equivalent good.
In this case comes the
consideration of such the
justifying causes for
producing uneasiness
by discourse.
