Thomas Jefferson defends the rights of each and every citizen to hold to a faith of their choosing; and asks for the respect of all citizens for each others' religious beliefs. The present administration of the LC-MS encourages it members to advocate for what they see as "Religious Freedom", but focus only on what they choose to believe and practice. The respect and defense of all citizens' religious freedom is lost in zeal for their own. We must defend the freedom of those who follow a different perspective and / or faith. President Harrison has lost sight of this basic element of religious freedom; and you can see this by the resources provided to celebrate Religious Freedom Day.
