Conscience and Law: Or A Discussion of Our Comparative Responsibility to Human and Divine Government is a philosophical work written by William Weston Patton and first published in 1850. The book explores the relationship between conscience and the law, and the responsibilities that individuals have to both human and divine governments. Patton argues that while the law is necessary for maintaining order in society, it is ultimately subservient to the higher authority of conscience and the divine law. He examines various examples of moral dilemmas and challenges readers to consider the role of conscience in decision-making. The book also discusses the importance of individual responsibility and the consequences of ignoring one’s conscience. Overall, Conscience and Law is a thought-provoking work that offers a nuanced perspective on the complex relationship between morality, law, and governance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
