- Title
The King's Good Servant, but God's First: Responses in Canon and Civil Law to Governmental Threats to the Church's Freedom to Carry out Her Mission.
- Authors
PAPROCKI, THOMAS JOHN
- Abstract
Legal and governmental threats to religious freedom are increasingly prevalent in the United States. In order to understand and combat this encroachment on the right of the Church to carry out her divine mission, it is essential to examine the basis of the right to religious liberty in natural law and theology as well as its expression in certain norms of canon law. Then, recent legal and judicial activity related to religious liberty in the United States must be explored and understood. Upon recognizing the current state of affairs, consideration should also be given to how injustices can be combatted.
