An Examination of the Principles of Peace and War, as Connected With Religion and Morality Particularly in Reference to the Formation of Peace ... of Peace Societies (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book delves into the origins and extent of war, and challenges the idea that peace societies built upon human determination can truly eradicate it. The author argues that war is an intrinsic result of our human nature and proclivity toward selfishness. This philosophical exploration suggests that perfect peace exists only within a state of complete selflessness, and that efforts to promote peace through external means may inadvertently exacerbate the very conflicts they aim to resolve. The author presents a thought-provoking examination of the relationship between personal morality and outward actions and seeks to illuminate the path toward a more profound and enduring peace.
