Discussion

An oath or commitment to do non-virtue. The word literally means "not bound," in the sense that the person who has a non-vow is not bound or committed to do virtue--quite the opposite. Examples of non-vows include executioners, slaughterers, hunters, fishermen, thieves, prostitutes and so forth. DKC
