Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Six Sermons: Delivered at the General Convention of Universalists, at Its Annual Session in Concord, N. H on the Nineteenth and Twentieth September 1832 The love of happiness is common to all men, and is inseparable from a conscious existence. Man´s very existence as a conscious and intellectual being, must be destroyed, in order to destroy his love of happiness. While he has power to exert himself, his exertions will be aimed, in general, at the promotion of his enjoyment. I know that some learned divines denominate this self-love, and these exertions for the happiness of one´s self, altogether vile and wicked. They say that men cannot conduct acceptably in the sight of God, but when they act upon disinterested principles, having no regard to self. However men may theorize on such a principle, it cannot be reduced to practice. For, I repeat it, a love of happiness is inseparable from human existence.
