An Enquiry Into The Origin Of Honour And The Usefulness Of Christianity In War

Bag om An Enquiry Into The Origin Of Honour And The Usefulness Of Christianity In War

""An Enquiry Into The Origin Of Honour And The Usefulness Of Christianity In War"" is a philosophical work written by Bernard Mandeville. In this book, Mandeville explores the concept of honor and its origins, arguing that it is a product of society rather than an inherent trait of human nature. He also discusses the role of Christianity in war, examining the ways in which religious beliefs and practices can either promote or hinder the conduct of warfare. Mandeville argues that Christianity can be useful in promoting peace and morality, but that it can also be used to justify violence and aggression. Overall, ""An Enquiry Into The Origin Of Honour And The Usefulness Of Christianity In War"" is a thought-provoking examination of two important topics in human history and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
