- Title
Origins of and responses to secular intolerance.
- Authors
Petri, Dennis P.; Buckingham, Janet Epp
- Abstract
Secular intolerance occurs when secular governments or societies marginalize religious faith and practice. Religion is forced out of the public sphere and is limited to the private sphere. Civic space is denied to those with religious perspectives that diverge from those promoted by those who are non-religious. This paper traces the philosophical roots of secular intolerance starting with the Enlightenment. It concludes with suggestions on counteracting secular intolerance.
