Religion & Law

At the National Review site, George Weigel has this piece, called "Defending Religious Freedom in Full".  It's definitely worth a read.  He worries that "[w]hat Father Murray called 'the consensus' would seem to be fraying ? and fraying, not only at the edges, but in the very warp and woof of the moral-cultural fabric of American public life."  Here's the conclusion:

The defense of religious freedom by the younger generation will be the work of a lifetime. But it must begin sooner rather than later, for the threats to religious freedom in our country are great, and are likely to get greater before they abate. At stake is nothing less than the long-term integrity of the American experiment in ordered freedom.
