IV. Consensus |
|
| 4.3 Consensus Obligation | ||
| Article 127-Promise | ||
| Canon 2279 | ||
| A Promise is a manifestation of intention to act or refrain from acting in a specific manner. | ||
 |
||
| Canon 2280 | ||
| The word Promise originates from the 16th Century meaning “an oath or vow given for some consideration”. It is derived from two Latin words pro- meaning “in front of, on behalf of, instead of, in return for or according to” and missum meaning “to send, dispatch, throw, hurl, dismiss, emit, utter, bestow or send word”. Hence promise literally means “to emit or utter (a vow or oath) word in return for some consideration”. | ||
|
||
| Canon 2281 | ||
| There are three (3) forms of Promise, reflecting the three forms of Consensus and Consent being Implied, Expressed and Sacred: | ||
| (i) An Implied Promise is the most common form made when signing documents associated with a Unilateral Consensus Instrument or Application whereby such documents presume the signature of the applicant is also as promise, sometimes argued as enforced by some expression that the applicant “comprehends” their obligations as a promise; and | ||
| (ii) An Express Promise is one whereby the promiser clearly vocalize their promise to the other parties with necessarily swearing a sacred oath in addition to any signature; and | ||
| (iii) A Sacred Promise is defined as a formal oath or affirmation expressed before two or more witnesses, memorialized in writing, whereby a Consensus to perform certain duties in exchange for some consideration of value is attested as true and binding. | ||
|
||
| Canon 2282 | ||
| The most solemn Promise is a Sacred Promise as it is made not only before all present, but to the Divine Creator, usually as part of investiture into Office. | ||
|
||
| Canon 2283 | ||
| A Promise such as an Implied Promise that is not expressed vocally before two or more witnesses and then duly recorded may by lawful excuse be rescinded or modified. | ||
