Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law Magazine and Law Review, or Quarterly Journal of Jurisprudence, 1861, Vol. 11 Happily, from habit and reason, men of the legal profession can entertain theological questions with great composure; and if they have their personal opinions and private creeds combated still their professional education enables them to submit to the misfortune without exhibiting great excess of indignation, and without giving utterance to grievous complaint of the wickedness and impiety of the rest of mankind. If a Ditcher want to deprive a Denison of his preferment, and inflict severe penalties on his erring brother, he runs to his attorney, who takes him to his proctor, who refers to his counsel, who introduces him to the judge, who settles the dispute. If a confederacy of devout parsons who know that they, and they alone, hold the truth, desire to avenge them of the vicar of Brading, after taking sweet counsel of themselves they must proceed to take dear counsel of their lawyers. The lawyer is, indeed, the arbiter of religious truth in England, and, be the task tasteful or nauseous, he must acquaint himself with the theological and ecclesiastical system about which men delight to litigate. Moreover, he must extend his investigation to divers dissenting communities, preparing himself for many questions connected with chapels, congregations, and ministers, which will spring forth occasionally. Nor is it an easy part of his professional duties, whether he practise in a village, or before the highest tribunal in the country, to conduct such suits. Still less easy is the task of exerting his influence in mollifying party warfare, and rendering placable those Christian volunteers of the church-militant, who show their pugnacity and zeal, by hunting out and stabbing co-religionists supposed to have some flaw in their creed.
