Indirect Legislation
Religion
cannot be too great: nor can the legislator have any
thing to fear from any the success of any measures
he may be employ for the purpose of augmenting
it. The same thing was nearly might perhaps be said
The same judgment nearly
might perhaps be passed
in the case where the application of this force, without
being subject to any human influence is
determined regulated inexorably by the p dictates of utility,
without being subject to any human influence, except
in as far as the dictates of utility are
themselves liable to be modified by that influence:
the only danger here could be, lest the
interpretation put upon those dictates notion entertained by the people
should clash with the interpretation put upon them
by the legislator: though this danger is no other
in this case the pertinacity of the people, well or
ill grounded may be expected to be greater when
thus enforced than if it had no other basis to
rest upon than their sige concern for so much such part of
their mere worldly interests as appear to be at stake
[upon the point in question].
If then the dictates bias affirmed professed by the religious sanction
be such that the dictates of it are not exactly
coincident with the dictates of utility, in such
case whether it be for the advantage of the commun-
-nity
