The Social and Intellectual State of England, Compared With Its Moral Condition (Classic Reprint): A Sermon Delivered in St. John's Catholic Church, Salford, on Sunday, July 28th, 1850 - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Explore the moral and intellectual health of England through a 1850 sermon that questions how religion fits with reason and national progress.
This edition presents a historic sermon that asks why the same human faculties driving progress in commerce and science do not always guide religious inquiry. It challenges readers to consider how education, social care, and institutional life shape virtue, duty, and unity of belief in a changing world.
Readers will encounter practical reflections on how society treats the poor, the role of religious institutions, and the dangers of focusing on outward display over true moral reform. The speaker uses contemporary examples to contrast public achievement with private duty, urging a deeper engagement with God and common good.
- Questions about unity of belief and the proper use of intellect in religious inquiry
- Critiques of institutions that overlook the needs of the poorest
- Comparisons of national greatness with genuine moral progress
- Thoughts on charity, virtue, and living in obedience to Gospel values
Ideal for readers interested in historical sermons, moral philosophy, and Victorian reflections on faith and society.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book considers the growth of social and intellectual greatness that has accompanied the economic prosperity of the nation in which the author lives. The author compares their era to previous periods of history and laments that, unlike the great benefactors of the past, the wealthy in his day have done little to give thanks to God for their good fortune. The author argues that religious institutions are partly to blame for this, as they have failed to reach out to the poor and serve their needs. The book concludes with a plea for a more charitable and pious approach to wealth and prosperity, arguing that true greatness lies in the union of material success with religious devotion and social responsibility.
