The True Basis of Religious Liberty

THE only true, permanent basis of religious liberty has regard for the rights of other men, even for bitter opponents. He who is insistent on demanding his own "rights," if sufficiently successful in obtaining them is quite likely to demand more, and so infringe upon the rights of his fellows. But that people who demand equality of rights for others, who insist that their opponents, even their enemies, shall be assured liberty, by that very principle place their own liberty on an enduring basis.
