Religion. Toleradon

Rosa Cummings, Breckenridge
high school girl. defines religious
federation ~ follows:
Religious liberation IL the right Of
any individual to think and believe
As he pleases A. long ~ he does not
violate the laws OF the country in
which he lives. In Medieval times
people were very narrow minded and
they thought they should believe Just
what the church said and believed
because their ancestors believed 1t.
The Renaissance was the main cause
that brought liberation, but 1t took
people many centuries to see that
there was no harm In liberation. The
benefit Of today 10 that people give
their ideas of religion which makes
others think and gives them new
views and ideas and makes the re-
ligion that is prominent better.
