Resist Not Evil - Clarence Darrow - Bog

Resist Not Evil is a book written by Clarence Darrow, a renowned American lawyer and civil libertarian. The book is a philosophical treatise on the concept of evil and the futility of resisting it. Darrow argues that evil is an inherent part of the human condition and that attempts to eradicate it through force or violence only perpetuate it. He advocates for a nonviolent approach to dealing with evil, which involves understanding its origins and working towards a more compassionate and empathetic society. The book is a reflection of Darrow's own experiences as a lawyer and activist, and his belief in the power of reason and rationality to overcome the destructive forces of hatred and bigotry. It is a thought-provoking and insightful read for anyone interested in philosophy, ethics, and social justice.Contents. 1. The Nature Of The State. 2. Armies And Navies. 3. The Purpose Of Armies. 4.
