Is Conscience a Safe Guide? [excerpt]
(2.) A Defiled Conscience, Titus, 1:15.
Leon Czolgosz was once a conscientious young man,
a member of the Roman Catholic church, but, under the influence of Emma Goldman
and her anarchistic literature, his conscience became so defiled that he assassinated
President McKinley and laid down his life for the deed, because he felt that
he had, as he said, “done his duty.” Such a conscience is not a safe guide.
