With Liberty for All: Freedom of Religion in the United States

With Liberty for All: Freedom of Religion in the United States

by Phillip E. Hammond (Author)

Synopsis

The United States is founded upon the principles of freedom of religion, although it has been difficult at times to understand and apply those principles. Phillip Hammond argues that the Constitution assumes a radical religious liberty, which protects the convictions of individual Americans, whether or not those convictions are explicitly religious. This book is an excellent guide to the church-state debate of today, and deepens that discussion by examining the root cause of disagreement about what freedom of religion means in America.
