Excerpt from Divinity Studies: Number One; The Contest for Liberty of Conscience in England Philip Schaff, in his Progress of Religious Freedom, has made the more general assertion that the Baptists and Quakers alone (and Protestant denominations of later date) were con sistent advocates of universal toleration, and put it in their creeds (p. None of these statements lacks in positiveness, nor is there one of these historians whose name does not give weight to his assertion; yet, combined, they tend to produce an uncertainty in the public mind. There are those who say: The battle is won; why give our attention to it now? Happy should we he could we know that the battle is won for the entire future. Persecution, though banished, may come back. The struggle of the early church for place and power was rewarded during the reign of Constantine; but an enthroned church soon became an intolerant church. Cen turies later a spirit of inquiry arose in Germany and led quickly to active dissent. The right to differ in religious thought from the pope and councils was claimed by Luther; but he soon con tended that none ought to differ from him; and to this the docile Melanchthon agreed. Calvin made the same claim of right for himself, and enforced by voice and action the same denial of liberty to others. Beza vehemently denied the right of dissent, while John Knox poured forth a tempest of wrath against those who disagreed with him in the faith. In England scores, now Catholics, now Protestants, were tortured and put to death for their religious beliefs. This violence has passed, and we would fain assure ourselves that complete freedom of con science, at least among the anglo-saxon peoples, has been attained and established as our permanent inheritance.

Our society's longstanding commitment to the liberty of conscience has become strained by our increasingly muddled understanding of what conscience is and why we value it. Too often we equate conscience with individual autonomy, and so we reflexively favor the individual in any contest against group authority, losing sight of the fact that a vibrant liberty of conscience requires a vibrant marketplace of morally distinct groups. Defending individual autonomy is not the same as defending the liberty of conscience because, although conscience is inescapably personal, it is also inescapably relational. Conscience is formed, articulated, and lived out through relationships, and its viability depends on the law's willingness to protect the associations and venues through which individual consciences can flourish: these are the myriad institutions that make up the space between the person and the state. Conscience and the Common Good reframes the debate about conscience by bringing its relational dimension into focus.

In one of the great triumphs of the colonial and Revolutionary periods, the founders of the future United States overcame religious intolerance in favor of a constitutional order dedicated to fair treatment for people's deeply held conscientious beliefs. It granted equal liberty of conscience to all and took a firm stand against religious establishment. This respect for religious difference, acclaimed scholar Martha Nussbaum writes, formed our democracy. Yet today there are signs that this legacy is misunderstood. The prominence of a particular type of Christianity in our public life suggests the unequal worth of citizens who hold different religious beliefs, or no beliefs. Other people, meanwhile, seek to curtail the influence of religion in public life in a way that is itself unbalanced and unfair. Such partisan efforts, Nussbaum argues, violate the spirit of our Constitution. Liberty of Conscience is a historical and conceptual study of the American tradition of religious freedom. Weaving together political history, philosophical ideas, and key constitutional cases, this is a rich chronicle of an ideal of equality that has always been central to our history but is now in serious danger.
