Book excerpt: Excerpt from Penn and Religious Liberty: Interpreted by Representatives of Sixteen Denominations; Founders' Week The event had no sooner become a thing of the past, than its unique and important character began to make a still deeper impression upon those who were privileged to be present, and also a much larger company, who were only able to share the uplift of the occasion by the narra tion of others, or by reading the published accounts. A demand has since arisen from many quarters that the words spoken at the meeting might be preserved as a permanent memorial of the occasion, and serve as a legacy to posterity and a guide to those in the future who may be called to write the history of the progress of religious liberty in our country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Penn and Religious Liberty: Interpreted by Representatives of Sixteen Denominations; Founders' Week Founders' week was ushered in October 4, 1908. In the midst of the days of celebration, with their spectacular features, in which the progress of industry and commerce, and the epochs of our history were portrayed, the still waters of religious progress sought deeper and more significant expression. On the evening of the sixth of the month, by invitation of the Religious Committee of Founders' Week, representatives of sixteen of Philadelphia's religious denominations came together in the two Friends' meeting-houses on Race and Cherry Streets, west of Fifteenth Street, freely granted by Friends for the purpose, and considered unitedly the topic, "Penn's Contribution to Religious Liberty." Nearly three thousand persons filled the two meeting-houses and listened with deep interest to the tributes paid to the great Founder of Philadelphia, and observed the exhibition of friendship and fellowship in religious association with a delight that will remain an inspiring and enduring memory. To make the event fully understood by those who were not present, it should be said that two meetings were in progress at the same time, the addresses in the Race Street meeting being repeated in the Cherry Street house. Isaac H. Clothier presided at the Race Street meeting, and Joseph Swain, President of Swarthmore College, in the Cherry Street house.

Book Synopsis A Perfect Freedom by : Jerry William Frost
Download or read book A Perfect Freedom written by Jerry William Frost and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The literature on the evolution of religious liberty in the United States has largely forgotten Pennsylvania, focusing instead on the histories of New England and Virginia. But Pennsylvania developed a unique tradition of religious freedom long before the Great Awakening and the rise of pietism, which historians often cite as the major influences on the separation of church and state. At the colony's founding in the 1680s William Penn and the settlers institutionalized religious toleration and separation of church and state. After the American Revolution, Pennsylvania served as the principal model for the provision of religious liberty in the other states and the federal government. Using a wide variety of sources--legal documents, church records, sermons, political tracts, diaries, newspapers, and government records--this book traces Pennsylvania's distinctive religious and political development, how it has influenced the nation and how, in turn, the nation has impacted upon it. The book covers the ongoing discussions about pacifism, rights for Jews and blacks, prayer in public schools, Sunday legislation, and other religious topics from William Penn's time through to World War II. It demonstrates how Pennsylvania developed a tradition of actively promoting religion that, after World War 11, resulted in U.S. Supreme Court rulings that cited the state for violations of First Amendment rights. This book will be of interest to American political, social, church, and legal historians, and anyone interested in policy issues involving the separation of church and state.

Download or read book Liberty, Conscience, and Toleration written by Andrew R. Murphy and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "William Penn played a crucial role in the emergence of religious liberty and remains a singular, if often overlooked, figure in the history of liberty of conscience. Penn's political thought provides a window into the tolerationist movement that gained strength over the second half of the seventeenth century. In addition, Penn experienced firsthand the complex relationship between political theory and practice as proprietor of a major American colony. A careful examination of Penn's political thought points scholars toward a new way of understanding the enterprise of political theory itself"--

Book Synopsis Endowed by Our Creator by : Michael I. Meyerson
Download or read book Endowed by Our Creator written by Michael I. Meyerson and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-05 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The debate over the framers' concept of freedom of religion has become heated and divisive. This scrupulously researched book sets aside the half-truths, omissions, and partisan arguments, and instead focuses on the actual writings and actions of Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, and others. Legal scholar Michael I. Meyerson investigates how the framers of the Constitution envisioned religious freedom and how they intended it to operate in the new republic. Endowed by Our Creator shows that the framers understood that the American government should not acknowledge religion in a way that favors any particular creed or denomination. Nevertheless, the framers believed that religion could instill virtue and help to unify a diverse nation. They created a spiritual public vocabulary, one that could communicate to all—including agnostics and atheists—that they were valued members of the political community. Through their writings and their decisions, the framers affirmed that respect for religious differences is a fundamental American value, Meyerson concludes. Now it is for us to determine whether religion will be used to alienate and divide or to inspire and unify our religiously diverse nation.
