 Franck Reply
Franck simply asserts in his example of the woman deciding between husband and child that both are supreme values and thus are in conflict.

His earnest desire for the conversion of his country led him to choose the ministry as his field of labour, and such was his zeal and success as a preacher that Count Ladislaus of Haag, who had but recently introduced the reformed faith into his province, invited him to his court.
