Civil government proceeds upon the supposition that man is a freeagent, capable of choosing and acting otherwise than as he does;but this theory, as we have seen, is incompatible with free agency. And should we admit, for the sake of the argument, that it is notincompatible with free agency, it is still irreconcilable withcivil government. Civil legislation prohibits various modes ofacting. It assumes that the forbidden actions are wrong--injurious to society--whereas, this theory represents th...at allthe actions that have been performed, or will be performed, werefreely willed, purposed, decreed, foreordained, and brought topass by God himself--that there are no events, and can be none, but what are in precise harmony with his eternal purposes--sothat, unless we suppose that God has from all eternity freelydecreed what is wrong and injurious, thereby subjecting humanlegislators to the necessity of opposing his will in order toprevent outrage and injury, civil legislation admits of nojustification or apology.
