"As a respected authority on church-state separation and culture-war issues, Rob Boston demonstrates an understanding of religious liberty that is sadly lacking among the God-fearing preachers and politicians of today's religious Right. Taking Liberties is both entertaining and enlightening, a valuable resource for those who strive for sanity and reason in public policy."     --David Niose, author of Nonbeliever Nation: The Rise of Secular Americans "A valuable reminder of the importance of religious freedom in America's past and present, and an eviscerating critique of attempts by the religious Right to use a false language of 'religious liberty' to undermine the very rights they pretend to support." --Katherine Stewart, author of The Good News Club: The Christian Right's Stealth Assault on America's Children, "As a respected authority on church-state separation and culture-war issues, Rob Boston demonstrates an understanding of religious liberty that is sadly lacking among the God-fearing preachers and politicians of today's religious Right. Taking Liberties is both entertaining and enlightening, a valuable resource for those who strive for sanity and reason in public policy." --David Niose, author of Nonbeliever Nation: The Rise of Secular Americans "A valuable reminder of the importance of religious freedom in America's past and present, and an eviscerating critique of attempts by the religious Right to use a false language of 'religious liberty' to undermine the very rights they pretend to support." --Katherine Stewart, author of The Good News Club: The Christian Right's Stealth Assault on America's Children "Robert Boston eloquently makes the case for what religious freedom is and what it is not. It is the right for you to promote and try to convince others that what you believe is correct, but it is not the right to have the government do it for you. He backs up his case with many alarming examples of threats to religious liberty in political, cultural, and educational areas, among others. People of all faiths and of none can read and benefit from this thoughtful, well-documented book that shows why 'live and let live' on matters of religion can benefit us all." --Herb Silverman, founder and president emeritus of the Secular Coalition for America; author of Candidate without a Prayer: An Autobiography of a Jewish, On Why the Religious Right Is Wrong : "This well-written book by an experienced journalist and student of church-state relations aggressively challenges the assertions of the Religious Right and shows most of them to be distortions, half-truths, and outright lies. . . . It should be in every school district's curriculum library." -- Contemporary Education "Sketches out a strong, clear set of debating points for use by those seeking to keep government from meddling in religion and vice versa. . . . It should make a handy and useful guide." -- San Francisco Bay Area Guardian, "As a respected authority on church-state separation and culture-war issues, Rob Boston demonstrates an understanding of religious liberty that is sadly lacking among the God-fearing preachers and politicians of today's religious Right.

Synopsis
A concise and lucid explanation of what religious freedom is and isn't.Increasingly, conservative religious groups are using religious liberty as a sword to lash out at others. In this forcefully argued defense of the separation of church and state, Robert Boston makes it clear that the religious freedom guaranteed in the First Amendment is an individual right, the right of personal conscience, not a license allowing religious organizations to discriminate against and control others. The book examines the controversy over birth control, same-sex marriage, religion in public schools, the intersection of faith and politics, and the "war on Christmas," among other topics.Boston concludes with a series of recommendations for resolving clashes between religious liberty claims and individual rights., A concise and lucid explanation of what religious freedom is and isn't ncreasingly, conservative religious groups are using religious liberty as a sword to lash out at others.

    I can finally save my Dreamcast games! Vmu was packaged very well, and it arrived quickly. As described and extremely clean, which I appreciate. Vmu tends to reset the date when not attached to the controller, but still saves data perfectly. Great price for this item. Highly recommended seller!
