Sinossi
Excerpt from The Right Way, or Practical Lectures on the Decalogue
Rousseau apostrophizes conscience as a divine instinct, immortal and heavenly voice, sure guide of a being ignorant and limited, but intelligent and free; infallible judge of good and evil. But in what human breast is such a conscience to be found? The existence of an innate infallible conscience can be demonstrated neither by the present experience nor the past history of our fallen race. Children, whose training has been neglected, are as ignorant of ethics as of natural science. Even the strongest advocates of the in fallibility of the inborn moral sense, when their attention is drawn to some intricate question in casuistry, have recourse, not to their divine instinct, but to acknowledged rules, and to their ordinary powers of reasoning and comparing: and the more judicious and reliable the Christian becomes, the more carefully does he disregard unaccountable impulses, and seek to conform his life to the revealed standard of duty.
