Beyond Toleration The Religious Origins of American Pluralism
Beschreibung:
The legal changes that brought religious liberty to the United States have been thoroughly documented. Beneke is the first to offer a systematic explanation of how people who still cared deeply about the fate of their immortal souls could manage to live with those who held significantly different beliefs about God and the church - in other words, how Americans learned to live with differences in matters of the highest importance to them, and found a way to articulate these differences without offence.
