Principles of Moral and Christian Philosophy, Vol. 2

Presents the first masterpiece of Scottish Common Sense philosophy. This two-volume treatise is important for its wide range of insights about the nature of the human mind, the foundations of morals, and the relationship between morality and religion. In order to understand the Enlightenment in Scotland, Turnbull's work must be put next to that of Francis Hutcheson. In this second volume, Christian Philosophy, Turnbull presents arguments for the existence of God and for God's infinite perfection. The underlying notion here is God's moral government of the world, a government that is particularly at work in the allotment of recompense for our good and evil deeds.Turnbull, George is the author of 'Principles of Moral and Christian Philosophy, Vol. 2', published 2005 under ISBN 9780865974593 and ISBN 0865974594.
