Publisher's Synopsis
Authority In Religious Belief: And Other Essays is a collection of essays written by Lawrence Pearsall Jacks and published in 1907. The book explores the concept of authority in religious belief and its impact on individuals and society. Jacks examines the role of religious authority in shaping beliefs and values, and questions the validity of blind adherence to religious dogma. He argues that individuals should critically evaluate their beliefs and exercise their own judgment, rather than blindly following authority figures. The book also includes essays on topics such as the nature of truth, the relationship between religion and science, and the importance of individual freedom. Overall, Authority In Religious Belief: And Other Essays is a thought-provoking exploration of the role of authority in shaping religious beliefs and the importance of individual autonomy in spiritual matters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
