Download or read book Separation of Church and State written by Philip HAMBURGER and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a powerful challenge to conventional wisdom, Philip Hamburger argues that the separation of church and state has no historical foundation in the First Amendment. The detailed evidence assembled here shows that eighteenth-century Americans almost never invoked this principle. Although Thomas Jefferson and others retrospectively claimed that the First Amendment separated church and state, separation became part of American constitutional law only much later. Hamburger shows that separation became a constitutional freedom largely through fear and prejudice. Jefferson supported separation out of hostility to the Federalist clergy of New England. Nativist Protestants (ranging from nineteenth-century Know Nothings to twentieth-century members of the K.K.K.) adopted the principle of separation to restrict the role of Catholics in public life. Gradually, these Protestants were joined by theologically liberal, anti-Christian secularists, who hoped that separation would limit Christianity and all other distinct religions. Eventually, a wide range of men and women called for separation. Almost all of these Americans feared ecclesiastical authority, particularly that of the Catholic Church, and, in response to their fears, they increasingly perceived religious liberty to require a separation of church from state. American religious liberty was thus redefined and even transformed. In the process, the First Amendment was often used as an instrument of intolerance and discrimination.

Book Why the Religious Right is Wrong about Separation of Church   State

Download or read book Why the Religious Right is Wrong about Separation of Church State written by Rob Boston and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Threats to religious freedom can come from government restriction on religious practices. But the greater threat to religious liberty comes when religious groups influence governments to promote their own activities and beliefs. Powerful and well-funded religious groups, ranging from the religious right to the Roman Catholic church, are using greater and broader methods to influence government. This book examines the changing role of religion in government and education. There are 11 chapters: (1) "Why So Many Church-State Problems?; (2) "Church-State Relations in the Middle Ages"; (3) "The Evolution of Church-State Separation in the United States"; (4) "The De Facto Protestant Establishment in 19th-Century America"; (5) "The Issue That Won't Go Away: Religion in Public Schools"; (6) "Parochiad"; (7) "Free Exercise"; (8) "Symbols and Sunday Laws: Other Church-State Problems"; (9) "Thy Kingdom Come: Christian Reconstructionism"; (10) "Suggestions for the Separationist Citizen Activist"; and (11) "Whither Separation?" Four appendices include common myths about separation of church and state, a short history of the religious right, major religious right organizations, and suggestions for further reading. Endnotes, an index, and four appendices are included. (JPT)
