[ Is it morally justified to rebel against your government? [ What type of government is best? [ Is the death penalty a power of the state? Throughout the 20th century, various governments have murdered mass amounts of people, empires rose and fell, and there were two great wars. Government has been used as a tool of evil and fundamental points of authority have been called into question like the common good, rights of the people, and the origin of civil authority. In Civil Authority, Father Joseph Rickaby deftly handles where authority comes from, what it's purpose is, and what it looks like when it is justly exercised. He challenges our basic assumptions about government which we've learned from school books and talk radio. Father Rickaby prompts us to recall the basis of civil authority in God. Do you yearn to see monarchy in your country? Do you think you're taxed too much? Do you fear that your rights are being abridged and government is too powerful? Father Rickaby takes on these and other topics while sidestepping the discussions that often bog down the debate. He approaches the core issues that inform you in the basis of civil authority to weave through wisely the claims made every day what it should and shouldn't be.
