Excerpt from The High Court of Parliament and Its Supremacy: An Historical Essay on the Boundaries Between Legislation and Adjudication in England In my treatment of this subject I have tried to keep within the limits I set for myself at the begin ning. Though I have argued against historical views which seemed insufficiently supported by evidence, I have done so without considering the bearing of those arguments upon controverted questions of to-day. Our legal institutions, in'common with our other institu tions, may be looked at in two ways. Even men's high est religious beliefs and aspirations may in all proba bility be rightly traced back to instincts which are so elemental and low that they are shared by animals far down in the scale of life. By demonstrating this humble origin, and the gradual development out of it, some scientists have supposed that they were dispos ing of the claims of religion upon the attention of men. They have assumed that a judgement - to use Pro fessor William J ames's expression - which is purely existential has validity also as a proposition of value. Thus to mistake the history of an institution for its rational justification seems to me a confusion of the worst sort.
