Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the connection between religion and the values that foster political freedom. The author argues that the Protestant Reformation was a key factor in the development of religious and civil liberty because the reformers, drawing their inspiration from the Bible, promoted universal education, which, in turn, made populations more knowledgeable and thus encouraged intellectual and moral vitality. As a result, the people began to think for themselves, and they demanded a civil society based on laws and justice, and not on monarchy and privilege. Most importantly, the Bible itself teaches the worth of each human soul, which then influenced the moral and social concerns of the people, leading to the development of modern democratic states. The author traces the development of these ideals in England in order to demonstrate the dramatic effect of religious freedom on the establishment of a free and just civil society.
