1.p144

If a monk, when the precepts are being recited, speak in some such way as this: “Brethren! what use is there in repeating these various and minute precepts? Each time they are repeated they cause people to feel perplexed and anxious, and engender doubts!” To trifle with and speak contemptuously of the precepts in this way is pācittiya.
