About this title

Synopsis

""The Function And Place Of Conscience In Relation To The Laws Of Men: A Sermon For The Times"" is a book written by Theodore Parker. This book is a sermon that explores the role of conscience in relation to the laws of men. Parker discusses the importance of listening to one's conscience and following it, even if it conflicts with the laws of society. He argues that a person's conscience is a higher authority than any man-made law and that it should be the guide for moral decision-making. Parker also discusses the dangers of blindly following laws without considering their ethical implications. This book is relevant to contemporary issues surrounding morality and the law and provides a thought-provoking perspective on the role of conscience in society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
