Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Two Lectures on the Inquisition: Delivered in Spring St. Church, Milwaukee The right of every man to perfect liberty of Religion and of Conscience, a right guarantied by the Creator, as the sacred heritage of the soul, inseparable from its existence and indispensable to its responsibility, has been maintained and defended by all good Governments, Civil and Ecclesiastical, in every age of the world; and is restrained only by tyrants. - Persecution for the exercise of the rights of Conscience, is repugnant to the profound mysteries of human life, and to the inviolable principles and order of Nature. All the refined instincts of the human soul cry out against it; and the only apology that can be presented in extenuation of the atrocities of a former age, must be derived from the ignorance and barbarism of those by whom they were enacted. Opinions may be confuted without prejudice to right; but freedom of thought and of expression may not be suppressed without sin in the sight of God, and violence against man. - Within the domain of Conscience, no Potentate nor Priest has a right to enter; and the intruder within that sacred enclosure should be expelled, as the apostate angels were rejected from the Courts of Heaven.
