the_o main_a point_n wherein_o they_o agree_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o two_o old_a judge_n be_v not_o valid_a in_o the_o crime_n of_o adultery_n object_v by_o they_o against_o susanna_n 13._o dan._n 13._o because_o though_o their_o testimony_n do_v agree_v in_o the_o crime_n and_o in_o what_o be_v material_a to_o condemn_v she_o yet_o they_o vary_v in_o some_o circumstance_n not_o

indifferent_a and_o of_o little_a importance_n in_o itself_o yet_o the_o incoherency_n in_o it_o do_v prove_v that_o the_o two_o old_a man_n testimony_n in_o the_o main_n be_v invalid_a therefore_o although_o not_o fundamental_a article_n be_v not_o necessary_a for_o salvation_n yet_o the_o incoherency_n in_o such_o little_a matter_n do_v invalid_a the_o catholic_n church_n testimony_n even_o in_o fundamental_n and_o the_o main_a point_n of_o christian_a religion_n therefore_o it_o must_v be_v grant_v that_o the_o testimony_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n either_o be_v not_o prudent_o credible_a and_o infallible_a in_o necessary_a and_o fundamental_a article_n or_o that_o it_o be_v prudent_o credible_a and_o infallible_a in_o not_o fundamental_n it_o follow_v also_o out_o of_o the_o premise_n that_o the_o catholic_n church_n can_v not_o be_v all_o church_n of_o christendom_n because_o there_o be_v not_o two_o of_o they_o who_o testimony_n concern_v faith_n do_v not_o differ_v at_o least_o in_o not_o fundamental_a point_n of_o religion_n and_o by_o consequence_n the_o testimony_n be_v absolute_o incredible_a because_o incoherent_a against_o what_o hitherto_o have_v be_v say_v some_o may_v object_v that_o the_o father_n unanimous_o testify_v fundamental_a article_n to_o be_v reveal_v by_o god_n aught_o to_o be_v credit_v though_o they_o contradict_v one_o another_o in_o matter_n not_o fundamental_a therefore_o the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v of_o many_o dissent_v church_n or_o congregation_n of_o christian_n why_o shall_v not_o the_o catholic_n church_n be_v compose_v of_o all_o christian_n agree_v in_o the_o principal_a point_n of_o christian_a religion_n though_o they_o agree_v not_o in_o other_o of_o less_o importance_n the_o example_n of_o tke_v babylonian_a judge_n in_o the_o case_n of_o susanna_n can_v not_o be_v apply_v to_o the_o catholic_n church_n they_o be_v not_o credit_v by_o daniel_n in_o the_o fact_n which_o they_o unanimous_o

other_o therefore_o the_o contradict_v themselves_o in_o the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o tree_n do_v demonstrate_v that_o they_o never_o see_v susanna_n commit_v adultery_n but_o no_o such_o
