C
Of Theft Reasons
From p.29 par.1
5. Because of the chance there is that the offender
may have contributed purposely to the calamity
by which he profits. It is but too certain that
houses are but too often set on fire with
this most atrocious view: at the same time
the act of incendiarism is commonly very
difficult to prove. Thus The extra punishment
in this case may therefore be regarded as a sort of punishment
for incendiarism mitigated pro modo
proportionium
. To p. 29 par. 2
---page break---
serves as a sort of moral lesson. By supposing
the people capable of such dark acts of heroism, as to
about expose themselves to the rigours of the law from
principles of benevolence, it shows that the Legislator
has a good opinion of them: it teaches them to
have a good opinion of themselves. It indirectly
bestows on them the first of praises the praise of benevolence:
and by so doing invites them to deserve it.
Question XI
Why the preservation of one's self or another
from immediate want is not made a ground
of absolute exemption?
Reasons
1. Because of the difficulty of ascertaining the
fact.
