| Summary: | This is the second of two articles dealing with the possibility of a more social psychological treatment of the individual sinner. The causes of delinquency and wrongdoing in general are summarized and a sociological statement of the nature and fundamental cause of such behavior is attempted. The modern method of the treatment of delinquency is then briefly described as a sequel to this more adequate comprehension of its nature and causes. The nature and causes of sin are then reinterpreted in the light of the above study of delinquency, and shown in part at least to be identical with those of the latter. By way of conclusion, there are given for the religious treatment of sin and the sinner certain suggestions growing out of our treatment of delinquency. |
