Excerpt from Marriage and Divorce: Physical, Psychical, Moral, and Social Relations, According to the Law Natural and Revealed "Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure, but even their mind and conscience is defiled." - S. Titus i. 15. Modern thought demands the radical discussion of every question. It will be satisfied with nothing less. The advocates of morals, and of Christianity also, will do well to recognize this fact. A very respectable and influential number of thinkers and writers, however, accept the principle of authority, especially that of Divine authority, and they ask nothing else than the clear word of God, as the warrant for any doctrinal or moral point. Not a few also accept the general testimony and witness of the Christian body, as gathered from the extant writings of the Christian ages, or from well supported enactments of canon law, as at least weighty, if not authoritative, for or against any particular point of doctrine or morals. In short, "the Word of God" is one authority, widely recognized, and "Catholic consent" is another. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
