His Sejm Sermons, as a political treatise, were an important voice concerning <br />the organization of society, the issue of the best system, religious tolerance. This treaty postulated the strengthening of the monarch’s power, the restoration of his judicial, legislative, stable <br />income for the kingdom. He enumerated the numerous mistakes of democracy, considered to <br />be the most harmful system, and criticized the tolerant Warsaw Confederation as a gateway <br />for non-believers and a threat to the unity of the country. He suggested the elimination of <br />national vices, such as private, lawlessness, disunion. He called for the improvement of the <br />lot of the peasants and included them in the same nation as the nobility.</p> ER -
