majoritive

— Compare this majoritive state of the proud and conceited intellect of man, with the unproductive intellect of the technically-called insane, and say, if Shakspeare, in seeing through the mind; commonly called the ‘heart’ of man; was not right, when in meaning to remark, that the world, in its majoritive sense, is mad, applied it, as one of his passing satires, to the people of England alone: […] Enough has been said, to satisfy the independent inquirer, that the fanatical, and even the majoritive use of the mind, has to a greater or less extent the essential character of dreaming and of insanity; […] But all contentions about a spiritual and material mind are fictional and useless: yet certainly, from various causes, the sub-animal mind as far as the five perceptions are its instruments, is perfect in its kind, for all its purposes; and the human intellect in its general or majoritive use, is disastrously perverted.
