Authority, a source of moral obliga-
tion. The prevailing spirit of in-

obligation awakened from two
sources, the nature of things and
authority. The latter only con-
sidered. I. Why is authority ne-
cessary as a source of obligation?
277. Different theories 278. Au-
thority necessary because, 1. There
are many purposes essential to the
government of society, which can-
not be gained by leaving mankind
to the separate decisions of each
one's intuitive or reflective percep-
tions 280.-2. Additional sanctions
to moral obligation necessary 283.
II. What is the test of legitimate
authority? The propriety of the
relation between the sovereign and
the subject to be consulted 286.
There must be competent qualifi-
cations 287. Legislation must not
contravene the claims of natural
obligation 289. It must not con-
flict with any higher authority 290.
Authority may give obligation to
that which would otherwise have
been a matter of indifference 291.
Refusal to obey, unless the unrea-
sonableness of the precept be ex-
hibited, makes a man either a rebel
or an outlaw 293. The spirit of
law fills the whole field of its ju-
risdiction 293. Disobedience to the
lowest rightful authority, as truly
sin as disobedience to the highest
294.
