9 Virtue what
In a practical matter point of view, if this Academical this Oxford
teacher of morality is to be believed, is no
light matter is this the subject which has thus been left
involved and to this hour continues to be involved
in such thick confusion. On it depends if any thing depends the difference
between salvation and damnation. These very qualities
thus continue and the Tolerance which on Aristotle's
account and language are but half-virtues, in Theology
if the Compend writer is to be believed are reckoned
not only among the most perfect arduous but among the most
arduous perfect arduous virtues. According to Aristotle's morality,
half is no more than but half — half-virtue but
half virtue. According to the Oxford Theology half is
at least equal to, if not greater than the whole. For
in the Oxford Theology the more mystery the more mirth mystery is made on every occasion out of any thing or nothing.
Observandum ipse v
To In At Oxford to the two Aristotelian appetites, the
concupiscible and the irascible should have been added
another at least one other, the appetite for mystery:
which being interpreted is that appetite which in the field
of religion puts keeps itself in the hunt for absurdity and nonsense:
feeding devouring upon its such aliment with a relish directly proportioned
to its grossness.
(a) Observandum virtutes.
