The Religion of Duty by Felix Adler explores ethics as the foundation of a meaningful life, independent of traditional religious beliefs. Adler emphasizes that duty and moral responsibility are central to human existence, guiding individuals toward personal growth and social harmony. He argues that ethical principles should be practiced universally, fostering compassion and justice. The work promotes a philosophy where duty to others and oneself forms the basis of a secular, yet deeply spiritual, approach to life and community.
Felix Adler (1851–1933) was a German-American philosopher, educator, and social reformer, best known as the founder of the Ethical Culture movement. Emphasizing moral principles over religious dogma, he advocated for ethical living, social justice, and universal human dignity. A professor of political and social ethics at Columbia University, Adler promoted education, labor rights, and civic responsibility, leaving a lasting impact on progressive thought and ethical humanism in the United States.
