heresie, iresie, F. h['e]r['e]sie, L. haeresis, Gr. ? a

After the study of philosophy began in Greece, and
the philosophers, disagreeing amongst themselves,
had started many questions . . . because every man
took what opinion he pleased, each several opinion
was called a heresy; which signified no more than a
private opinion, without reference to truth or
falsehood. --Hobbes.
[1913 Webster]

Note: "When I call dueling, and similar aberrations of honor,
a moral heresy, I refer to the force of the Greek ?, as
signifying a principle or opinion taken up by the will
for the will's sake, as a proof or pledge to itself of
its own power of self-determination, independent of all
other motives." --Coleridge.
[1913 Webster]

3. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary |
Heresy
from a Greek word signifying (1) a choice, (2) the opinion
chosen, and (3) the sect holding the opinion. In the Acts of the
Apostles (5:17; 15:5; 24:5, 14; 26:5) it denotes a sect, without
reference to its character. Elsewhere, however, in the New
Testament it has a different meaning attached to it. Paul ranks
"heresies" with crimes and seditions (Gal. 5:20). This word also
denotes divisions or schisms in the church (1 Cor. 11:19). In
Titus 3:10 a "heretical person" is one who follows his own
self-willed "questions," and who is to be avoided. Heresies thus
came to signify self-chosen doctrines not emanating from God (2
Pet. 2:1).
|
4. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) |
HERESY, Eng. law. The adoption of any erroneous religious tenet, not
warranted by the established church.
2. This is punished by the deprivation of certain civil rights, and by
fine and imprisonment. 1 East, P. C. 4.
3. In other countries than England, by heresy is meant the profession,
by Christians, of religious opinions contrary to the dogmas approved by the
established church of the respective countries. For an account of the origin
and progress of the laws against heresy, see Giannoni's Istoria di Napoli,
vol. 3, pp, 250, 251, &c.
4. in the United State, happily, we have no established religion; there
can, therefore, be no legal heresy. Vide Apostacy; Christianity.
