Cap. XI: Placeus alien from Pelagian, Socinian, and Remonstrant teaching

Chapter XI. That Placeus stands apart from the Pelagian, Socinian, and Remonstrant teaching on this question. Garissoles wants to make us hated and crush us under the heaviest prejudices by grieving that we make common cause with Pelagians and Socinians. There is nothing to grieve over. We shrink from the errors of such men as strongly as anyone can. He adds that the oldest heretics — I take him to mean the Marcionites and the Manichees, who with the height of impiety called the old law evil — held that there can be no just imputation of another's sin. What does that have to do with our question?

Latin

CAPUT XI. A Pelagianorum, Socinianorum, & Remonstrantium in hoc negotio sententia Placeum esse alienum. Ut nos reddat exosos, & gravissimis obruat praejudiciis, dolet nos cum Pelagianis & Socinianis paria facere. Sed dolendi causa nulla est: Nam ab hujusmodi hominum erroribus abhorremus, ut qui maxime. Vetustissimorum, addit, haereticorum (Marcionitas puto, & Manicheos, qui legem antiquam malam esse summa cum impietate afferebant) sententia fuit, nullam esse posse justam alieni peccati imputationem. Quid hoc ad rem?
