The Vanity of Moral Life or Man Considered in His Present Mortal State is a philosophical work written by John Howe. The book explores the concept of human mortality and the limitations it places on human life. Howe argues that the pursuit of moral perfection is ultimately futile, as human beings are inherently flawed and unable to achieve perfection. He suggests that instead of striving for moral perfection, individuals should focus on living a life of humility and virtue, accepting their imperfections and seeking to do good in the world. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition and the limitations of human nature, and is sure to be of interest to anyone interested in philosophy, ethics, or the nature of human existence.THIS 102 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Sacred Classics or Cabinet Library of Divinity Theological Treatises V20, by John Howe.
