Christian Science And Religious Liberty, Edward W. Dickey Feb 1906

Christian Science And Religious Liberty, Edward W. Dickey

Michigan Law Review

Prominent among the expressions of religious thought in this country in recent years is that of Christian Science. Its teaching in regard to the healing of disease without any material agencies has called forth many comments on the question of religious liberty. As it has attracted to it a large and ever increasing number of intelligent and law-abiding citizens, all over the country, and as there have been several efforts to partially or totally restrict its practice as a means of healing, by proscriptive legislation, we deem it proper to set forth, in a general way, some of the questions, …

Marriage And Divorce In State And Church, Benjamin Brewster May 1905

And this acute and discerning reasoner makes a further reflection, from his stand-point as one interested in the maintenance of order and stability in the state: "Agitated by the tumultuous passions which frequently disturb …

Ecclsiastical Jurisdiction In England, Edwin Maxley Mar 1905

Ecclsiastical Jurisdiction In England, Edwin Maxley

Michigan Law Review

Previous to the invasion of William the Conqueror the ecclesiastical jurisdiction in England was not at all clearly defined. Under the protection, and, as protection implies jurisdiction, under the jurisdiction of the bishops were the following: sacred persons and sacred things. Among the former were included men in orders, monks and nuns; and among the latter: churches and church-yards, books and furniture of churches, sacraments, ecclesiastical and marital rituals.

The Courts Of Judea, Jerome C. Knowlton Jan 1894

The Courts Of Judea, Jerome C. Knowlton

Articles

The study of Jewish jurisprudence has become interesting during the past ten years through the efforts of some painstaking scholars, who have not been burdened with any particular dogma, but have been actuated by a true Christian spirit. They have been close students of those portions of the Talmud which throw light on the jurisprudence of the Jews.
