Excerpt from A Reformation of Morals Practicable and Indispensable: A Sermon, Delivered at New-Haven, on the Evening of October 27, 1812
The multiplication of new prohibitions and penalties will not avail; for the evil to be redressed is the non execution of laws already competent. If executed, to our protection.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the argument that reforming society's moral compass is an attainable goal, despite the challenges of mass immorality, apathy, and dire predictions. The author draws on historical examples to demonstrate the feasibility of reformation and emphasizes the significant role that individuals and local communities play in upholding moral standards. The book explores the importance of preserving the connection between sin and shame, and argues that when this connection is diminished, the tax of shame is lightened on the dissolute and immoral, contributing to a decline in public morals. The author also discusses the critical role of religious education in shaping children's morality, emphasizing the need for parents and educators to instill religious principles and moral discipline in the younger generation. This book provides a thought-provoking analysis of the challenges and opportunities involved in reforming public morals and offers practical insights for individuals and communities seeking to uphold moral standards and preserve their values.
