Fallacies X. ad Judicium Ch. 5. Cause-and Obstacle-Confounders

V
Universities

1.
Sincerity a virtue, bases
of all other virtues,
every worthy man
bred at Oxford is
so not because but
notwithstanding
p.1.

2.
Insincerity a vice
the deeper the tinge
the more attentive
the recollection and the
more intense the asseveration:
most
intense when attention
has the sanction of
an oath to fix it.
p.1.

3.
Oaths assertory & promissory
are both assertory
but of the simply
assertory there can be
but one sort of breach
viz. at any other that
one time, if promissory,
that and another
breach at any other
time. — viz. non existence
of intention
to maintain the line
of conduct promised
or subsequent departure
from it.
p2.

4.
On matriculation
volume of statutes
put into the freshmans
hand and he
bound by oath to
obedience to every
article
p.3

5
Violation of this oath
constant universal
and notorious.
p.3.

6
Conceditur — laws
this violated supremely
frivolous, — violation
innoxious. But the
sanction violated
is the same as that
which is employed
to preserve from violation
the most important
laws.
[Murder, — and omission
to wear a band]
p.4.

7.
Conceditur. On the
supposition of the
efficacy of an oath is
involved an impious
and absurd supposition:
viz. that
to man over God
belongs the power of
a Judge over a Sheriff
suppose this not
possessed the violation
of the Oath is without
effect. p.4.

8.
Answer. What follows
— that the administering
an oath
is not useful but absurd
& impious.
p.4.

9
It can not be useful
for the purpose of
justifying the habitual
administration
of it — frivolous for
the purpose of excusing
their concomitant
assurance of its being
universally violated.
p.4

10
Perjury wrong in any
degree, the more palpably
innoxious the
acts it is employed
for the prevention of
the more inexcusable
the universal
subornation of it.

The act noxious
the more so the
greater the good
which supposing the
oath to abstain from
it in any degree efficacious
will be
to be to be set against
the mischief of the
profanation, the perjury.
p.5.
