Fallacies X. ad Judicium Ch. 3. Cause and Effect Confounders

Note
Oxford Statutes

10
10(a)
1. Engagements
taken on becoming a
Member of Oxford University.

2. Statute Tit. II p4.
On Matriculation
every person above 16
shall subscribe the
39 Articles.

3. and swear to observe
all the University
statutes privileges
& customs.
[Follow exemptions
on the score of nonage.]
p.1.

4. Ib. p.250. Word
of the Oath in Latin
for a Scholar. —

5. do in English for a
"privileged person" [not
a scholar.]

6. Tit. 14 or 15. pp.
169 to 181 de moribus
confirmandis
prohibits
indifferent things in
abundance — all of
them in constant and
universal practice.
p2.

8.7. In all ranks and
degrees, in perjury habitual
and universal as
in water fish, they
live & move &c.

10(a) continued
9. When fresh
Statutes are passed
the oath does it extend
to them or not? If
yes then are laws
made with on the ground
of maturer & more
apposite experience
deprived of the sanction
applied to the
others: —
if no then the Oath
applies to Statutes unknown
however unfit
for observance they
may prove. p.4

10 Suppose Parliament
to forbid what these
Statutes ordain or
vice versâ here
then is an oath
imposed by Church
to disobey King in
Parliament.

11. Catholics notwithstanding
their protestations
to the contrary
are accused of
setting up spiritual
authority in opposition
to temporal — does
Catholic by any oath
bind himself to such
blind & eventually
rebellious obedience.
p.4.

12 Saunderson's Epinomis
or Explanatio
juramenti
bound up
with these Statutes.

From him we have
a book de Juramenti
Obligatione
: — he merited
a place with the most
expert Jesuit in the
Lettres Provinciales.
p.9.

13. Men are left to guess
whether this is to be considered
as part of the
Oath & whether to the
unnamed Author a power
belongs of dispensing
with oaths is a point
question left for tender consciences p.5


---page break---

14 Endless to exhibit
all his lessons for committing
perjury p.5.

15. But by a concluding
aphorism he
convicts of "perjury"
all the local constituted
authorities viz.
in suffering these
statutes to be tacitly
abrogated for want of
being enforced. p.6.

16. Discovery made
by him in legislation
that to a Legislator
who under pain of
punishment prohibits
a crime it is matter
of indifference whether
the crime be abstained
from or the punishment
suffered. p.7.
