Nor would I have it thought that anything our historian may have affirmed in the passage cited, or elsewhere, controverts these my opinions. For if all the glories and all the defects both of peoples and of princes be carefully weighed, it will appear that both for goodness and for glory a people is to be preferred.
After all, we can discover no more reason why sciolists in metaphysics should bring that study into discredit, than that religion itself should be disparaged through the extravagance of fanaticism. To have met the subject fully, he ought to have shewn that not only those opinions which he controverts are erroneous, but that all the systems of former metaphysicians were so likewise.
Sir Joseph Jekyl, in his reply, whilst he controverts its application to the Doctor's defence, fully admits and even enforces the principle itself, and supports the Revolution of 1688, as he and all the managers had done before, exactly upon the same grounds on which Mr. Burke has built, in his Reflections on the French Revolution. Sir Joseph Jekyl.
In the other passage, which occurs in the philosophical book "On the Migration of Abraham," he sets forth the reason of the authority of the law with more argument, and controverts those who would allegorize away the ordinances. "To whom, then, God has granted both to be and to seem good, he is truly happy and truly renowned.
But Sir W. Hamilton goes further, and affirms that we have no faculties capable of apprehending the Infinite and the Absolute that both of them are inconceivable to us, and by consequence unknowable. Herein Mr Mill is opposed to him, and controverts his doctrine in an elaborate argument.
This secular conflict to which the Jewish question is finally reduced, the relation of the political State to its fundamental conditions, whether the latter be material elements, like private property, etc., or spiritual elements, like education or religion, the conflict between the general interest and the private interest, the cleavage between the political State and bourgeois society these secular antagonisms are left unnoticed by Bauer, while he controverts their religious expression.
The Purvapakshin holds the latter view on the ground that as 'Muni-hood' and 'learning' both connote knowledge, the word 'Muni' merely refers back to the knowledge already enjoined in the phrase 'after he has done with learning. For the text presents no word of injunctive force with regard to Muni-hood. This view the Sutra controverts.
This belief of mine controverts the assertion of the poet "He best can paint them who has felt them most." Except that the poet says who has felt; yes, it is after, and not when most felt that sentiments can be most powerfully expressed. I have had a busy day; engaged during the greater portion of it in the momentous occupation of shopping.
It will perhaps be better appreciated and understood, if with it, or after it, is taken up Chance's Treatise on Powers, a work more diffuse than Mr. Sugden's, and which examines, controverts, and discusses at large many of his positions. Sugden on Vendors and Purchasers may then follow. The titles on Leases and Terms for Years, and Rent, in Bacon's Abridgment, should be studied.
Messer Boccone's strong epithet is probably undeserved, as the notion he controverts, in all likelihood, arose merely from the misinterpretation of the strictly true statement which any coral fisherman would make to a curious inquirer; namely, that the outside coat of the red coral is quite soft when it is taken out of the sea.
