Excerpt from The Fundamental Principles of Christian Ethics: Five Lectures
Have everywhere, in rehearsing them, aimed to render myself free from bias, that I might thus present a perfectly fair résumé of adverse views - and those familiar with these matters assure me that I have been very careful and With out groundless prejudice yet I feel that much has been lost to the strength of my own position and to the cause of Christian Ethics by the unavoidably close condensation of the ethical theories which I have examined, and by the brevity of the arguments and of the refutation which I have urged against them. A commentary, for this reason, would have added materially to the utility of the lectures.

Seller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, as the first in a series of lectures on General Ethics, elucidates the nature of the human act and its moral components. It delves into the philosophical underpinnings of morality, distinguishing itself from Ethical Empiricism, which grounds moral principles in human customs, and contrasting with Rationalistic theories. By establishing the basis of moral standards and the substantive conditions of 'human acts', the author provides a framework for understanding the sources of morality, the nature of ethical decision-making, and the relationship between actions and moral culpability, thus illuminating the complexity of defining good and evil in human conduct. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
