On the other hand, the true constituency for any friend of freedom should be all believers in every faith no matter how foreign that belief is to our own. But then, the failure to grasp the breadth and depth of religious freedom is not unusual. Many who mouth the words and tinker with the laws related to religious liberty have never caught a vision of universal, whole-cloth, pervasive freedom. Religious liberty is not a concession of human beings. It is a gift of God.
Freedom is never really free when it depends upon the mood of the majority at the moment.
That's precisely why we have a counter-majoritarian Bill of Rights. Nope, I'd still rather be Madisonian than Istookian. They contend that real freedom is reserved for the redeemed. Surely no believer will deny the existence of a higher spiritual freedom for those with a faith experience. That political freedom which every mortal is entitled to expect and demand is always on our agenda.
