Synopsis

The Message of Man: A Book of Ethical Scriptures is a philosophical and ethical work written by Stanton Coit and published in 1895. The book is a collection of ethical teachings and scriptures from various religions and philosophies, including Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Confucianism, and Taoism. Coit's aim in this work is to provide a comprehensive and universal ethical guide for humanity, drawing on the wisdom of different cultures and traditions. He argues that there are certain fundamental ethical principles that are common to all religions and philosophies, and that these principles can serve as a basis for a shared ethical code that transcends cultural and religious differences. The book is divided into chapters that focus on different ethical themes, such as love, justice, truth, and compassion. Each chapter includes a selection of ethical teachings and scriptures from various sources, along with Coit's commentary and analysis. Overall, The Message of Man is a thought-provoking and insightful work that offers a broad and inclusive perspective on ethics and morality. It remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in exploring the ethical teachings of different religions and philosophies, and in seeking a universal ethical framework for humanity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
