Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book, written by the author of Pascal's Pensees, is a powerful critique of the moral teachings of the Jesuits. Published in 1657, the text examines the writings of contemporary Catholic scholars whose lax approach to morality, the author argues, threatened the stability of the Church. The author traces the history of Jesuit teachings from their inception to their latest, most extreme iterations. He shows how their intellectual laziness and willingness to abandon traditional teachings has led to the creation of a system of ethics at odds with both the teachings of the Church and the dictates of human reason. By focusing on a series of key examples, the author unveils the destructive implications of the Jesuits' extreme positions on topics concerning violence, property, sexuality, and more. ultimately, this book is a timely reminder of the importance of intellectual rigor and moral consistency in a world where both are in short supply. Its insights into the dangers of intellectual dishonesty and moral relativism remain essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the corrosive effects of bad ideas.
