Conduct and the Supernatural is a scholarly essay written by Lionel Spencer Thornton, which won the prestigious Norrisian Prize in 1913. The book explores the relationship between human conduct and supernatural beliefs, examining the ways in which these beliefs have influenced ethical and moral behavior throughout history. Thornton draws on a wide range of sources, including religious texts, philosophical treatises, and scientific studies, to argue that supernatural beliefs have played a crucial role in shaping human behavior and moral values. He also considers the implications of these beliefs for contemporary society, questioning whether they still have relevance in a world increasingly dominated by scientific and rational thinking. Overall, Conduct and the Supernatural is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the complex relationship between belief and behavior, and a valuable contribution to the ongoing debate about the role of religion in modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
