A Defense of Religious Liberty
By Editor
A kindly solicitous letter comes to us from Denver, Colorado, by a writer who tells us, "I have investigated your sect and papers thoroly, and have arrived at the absolute certainty that you are under serious delusions," and yet he addresses us as "Advents." We are Adventists. Surely he has not been very observing or discriminating. The paper of wisdom which he sends out declares that "the plank" "in the Constitution of the United States that all shall have liberty to worship God according to the dictates of their own conscience" is "ridiculous." He does not believe this. The Constitution does not say it. It declares that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." In the light of the ages it is hardly ridiculous.
