When Charles had first thought about the moral sense in 1838, he had suspected that it was “an hereditary compound passion.” He now had a notion of its make-up. “Ultimately our moral sense or conscience becomes a highly complex sentiment—originating in the social instinct, largely guided by the approbation of our fellow men, ruled by reason, self-interest, and in later times by deep religious feelings, and confirmed by instruction and habit.” Just as geology had given him the vast time-frame needed for evolution to work in, so philosophy and psychology pointed to mental forces and links operating below personal awareness. The new science of man that he envisaged would not simply trace the complexes of feeling and belief down to one or two supposedly primary factors; it would try to understand the interplay of instinct and conscious thought in order to fathom their workings with each other. ~ Page 293
