The Nature and Authority of Conscience is a philosophical work written by Rufus Matthew Jones and first published in 1920. The book explores the concept of conscience, which Jones defines as an inner sense of right and wrong that guides moral decision-making. Jones argues that conscience is a fundamental aspect of human nature, and that it is a source of authority that should be respected and followed.Throughout the book, Jones examines the nature of conscience, its role in ethical decision-making, and its relationship to religion and spirituality. He also explores the ways in which conscience can be influenced by external factors, such as cultural norms and social pressures.The book is divided into four main sections. The first section provides an overview of the concept of conscience and its historical development. The second section explores the nature of conscience, including its relationship to reason, emotion, and intuition. The third section examines the authority of conscience, arguing that it should be respected and followed even when it conflicts with external sources of authority, such as religious doctrine or societal norms. The final section explores the relationship between conscience and religion, arguing that a deep and authentic religious experience can help individuals to better understand and follow their conscience.Overall, The Nature and Authority of Conscience is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of a fundamental aspect of human nature. Jones' writing is clear and accessible, making the book a valuable resource for anyone interested in ethics, philosophy, or spirituality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
