The Educational Value Of Christian Doctrine, M. Scholastica Walters

Bachelors’ Theses

This short thesis is offered with the hope of strengthening the belief that there can be no true education without moral training, and that the moral training without the religious is incomplete, and at times even proves baneful. It is incomplete in as much as vices lead to undermine the physical constitution and to blind the intellect, weaken the faculties and harden the heart; baneful, for intellectual development, without morality, may become a snare and a temptation to virtue.

Bachelors’ Theses

The man without character acts upon impulse and he speaks and acts as these impulses seize him. If such a man's life is at all consistent it is because he lacks any originality or initiative to do otherwise. His character depends upon his impulses, or upon the good or bad …
