Legal Ethics and Reform

Legal Education and The Proliferation of Sin

In America large numbers of our brightest young people are taught the arts of dissimulation. These law students are taught that this form of deception is required of them because of their "place" or "role" in society.

Moral theologians have noted that people who have systematic, imbedded immoral behavior of one kind in their lives tend to have compromised consciences and over time will tend to develop problems with other kinds of immoral behavior. With lawyers, other kinds of immoral behavior keep cropping up with little open sign of remorse.
