Religious Liberty

John Locke

“Locke breaks from the way Christian thinkers had treated these topics for centuries. In the classical Christian tradition, religion is not merely inward belief. It is a lived, embodied reality: sacramental, hierarchical, liturgical, and communal. And while politics should protect rights and prevent harms, it also has a pedagogical function.” - L&L
