Erroneous division. it's Source, and consequences.

or [expressly] establish, are [not only different but] contradictory & inconsistent.
The Division I mean is that into Divine Law, Natural Law, Law of tion, Law of Nature and
Positive Law, Positive or Municipal.

Were I to be asked for a Definition of the a state of Nature, I could not give long
a clearer or more characteristic definition of it, than this, that it was the State in
which Mankind were in, while there was no Law. And yet the practice of speaking of
that State as having a Law, a Law too that is to controul and perplex the operation
of Positive and real Laws, is become so inveterate, that to deny it's existence contest the propriety
of the appellation, must at first sight bear the appearance of nothing a captious refinement .
flatter'd with the title of the Legislative of Mankind, they have called the covert production of their own the Laws of Nature.
