DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from American Slavery Distinguished From the Slavery of English Theorists, and Justified by the Law of Nature The first article of the amended Constitution of the United States declares that Congress Shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibit ing the exercise thereof. This declaration is justly dear to the hearts of the American people. It secures to every citizen the enjoyment of liberty of conscience, or the sacred right to worship God according to the dictates of his own judgment, with none on earth to make him afraid. It puts the various denominations of relig ion. On an equal footing, protecting all but showing preference to none; and thus saves the people from a prolific source of jealousy and discord. The dictate of practical wisdom, it is at once the charter of religious lib crty and a preventive of religious dissension.
