On the Imputation of Adam's First Sin · §246

Man. Post. Cap. IV: PLAC — posterior resp.; confirmation syllogism

Placeus. This later reply seems aimed at the second support of my minor. First it never touches that support. Then it contradicts itself. Finally it turns silly.

The support ran thus: Whoever, on the day he sinned, was not hit with bodily death or eternal death, did not die that day as God had threatened. But Adam, the day he sinned, was not hit with bodily death or eternal death. Therefore Adam did not die that day as God had threatened.

Latin

PLAC. Haec posterior responsio ad secundam Minoris argumenti mei confirmationem spectare videtur: Sed primo eam non attingit; Deinde sese ipsa contradictione implicat; Denique se praebet ridiculam. Sic enim se habebat illa confirmatio, ut eius vim explicem, Cui, quo die peccavit, non est inflicta mors corporis, nec aeterna, is non est eo die, sicuti Deus minatus fuerat, mortuus. Atqui Adamo, quo die peccavit, non est inflicta mors corporis, nec aeterna. Ergo Adamus non est eo die, sicuti Deus minatus fuerat, mortuus.
