Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the Irish Church, its position within Irish society, and the moral responsibility of the State regarding the Established Church. The author argues that the State, in its best condition, has a conscience that can take cognizance of religious truth and error, specifically the State of the United Kingdom at a time when this question was a pressing social issue. The author initially supported the Irish Church, but his views evolved over time as he became aware of the social and economic realities of Ireland. His personal journey adds to the depth of the book's analysis. The book provides unique insights into the complex religious and political landscape of Ireland during a time of great change and sheds light on the broader themes of church and state, religious freedom, and the role of government in society.
