Why is retaining the right to religious freedom important?

Retaining the right to religious freedom is important because in a democratic society people should be free to practice their religion. Also, people would rebel if religious freedom was curtailed.


What is the benefit of having freedom of religion and what would happen if we didn't have it?

A benefit of having freedom of religion is that people can choose what religion to follow without fear of being persecuted. Also, people have to learn to accept that religion because there is nothing they can do about it. If we didn't have freedom of religion you wouldn't be asking this question because you'd know the answer! Life would be boring, except of course from the seeking out of people who refuse to follow the chosen religion. There are many examples of what happens without freedom of religion in History, and still today. Mary Queen of Scots and Lady Jane Grey (the Nine Days Queen) are just two examples out of many.


By including the freedom of religion in the First Amendment, the founding fathers were promoting religion?

Actually, the founders included the freedom of religion in the First Amendment to ensure that the government would not establish a national religion and to protect the free exercise of religion for all individuals. They aimed to create a secular government that would not favor any particular faith, promoting religious freedom rather than any specific religion.

Is there any chance our society would revert to whites only again?

Why you should have freedom?

==One Answer== Freedom leads to personal and intellectual growth. With freedom, you need to do your own thinking and make your own decisions. No one does that for you. It forces you to take responsibility for yourself and for the consequences of your actions. Freedom is not for the lazy or undisciplined. They fail to thrive in a free society. Freedom means more work for the individual but the rewards of living in a free society are worth the effort.

What degree of freedom is required in a democratic society?

One would think total freedom, but that would lead to anarchy, and by extension freedom for no one. This is a question that many have tried to answer. The more conservative view is a lesser degree of freedom than the traditional liberal view. The proper answer would be what the founding father may have had in mind, freedom for the educated property owners to pursue commercial interests, and freedom for the rest of the citizenry to live.


Why is freedom of speech not good in democratic society?

To have a democratic society freedom of speech IS needed. Not to have it would mean a society where people can not protest or write/say anything bad concerning the government. Freedom of speech is extremely good in a democratic society. If people are going to be able to participate in the process of government, they need to be able to share their thoughts on political subjects. Dictatorships, in comparison, always try to restrict speech, so that no opposition to their rule can even be expressed.

Could the United States be a free country without freedom of religion?

No. It is a contradiction in terms to think of freedom without freedom of religion, just as it would be a contradiction in terms to think of freedom without freedom of speech, freedom of assembly and so on. Freedom means not having to follow any one religion, nor having the values of any one religion imposed on society at large.
