The Laws of Vows
Question
What is the law regarding conditional vows where, if the condition is fulfilled, the vow is not considered to have taken effect from the outset?
For example:
I will not do X unless I go to place Y. If I go, it turns out that I never made a vow at all.
Answer
Like anything else done on condition. Why should there be any difference?
