Constitutional CodeCh. XXV. Justice Minister
§. 5. Dispensative Functions Indirect
Instructional Ratiocinative
When it is by an act exercise given to the power of the Justice Minister
that the effect is produced, the attention of the public
eye is drawn to the subject, and the tutelary power
of the Public Opinion Tribunal is occupied in obviating
the misexercise of it: when it is in any of the above-mentioned
indirect ways that the effect is produced, the
security against evil is wanting.
Exception excepted, by this observation condemnation
is passed on every indirect mode of producing this
same effect.
The exception is – where by popular error prejudice
a desire is kept up to witness the punishment this or that
species of action by which either no evil at all, or none
but what is by concomitant good, or by the
evil which in the shape of punishment would be necessary
for the suppression of it: In this case as for example
where under the delusions to which the weakness of human
understanding is exposed, produced or strengthened by
priestcraft it becomes the desire of one man
to see another punished for what is called heresy: that
is to say an opinion different from the opinion entertained
or professed to be entertained by him who with impunity
to himself has the power of producing suffering on the part
of another.
