It\u2019s enshrined in our Constitution and praised by the Church, and most of us have grown up without questioning it. However when this liberty is threatened, when it\u2019s not respected as a fundamental right, we\u2019re forced to pull back and ask a basic question: why do people deserve religious liberty?<\/p>\n<p>Cardinal Timothy Dolan of New York gives his answer in a new eBook released today. True Freedom: On Protecting Human Dignity and Religious Freedom (Image Books, 37 pages, eBook) shows how respect for human dignity\u2014the dignity of all humans, regardless of their beliefs\u2014undergirds the right to religious liberty. Quoting Pope Leo XIII, he begins by saying:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrue freedom\u2026 is that freedom which most truly safeguards the dignity of the human person. It is stronger than any violence or injustice. Such is the freedom which has always been desired by the Church, and which she holds most dear.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Find out more and see at review at <a href=\"http:\/\/brandonvogt.com\/2012\/06\/true-freedom-review.html?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheThinVeil+%28BrandonVogt.com%29\">Brandon Vogt&#8217;s blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"http:\/\/rcm.amazon.com\/e\/cm?t=thecurjes-20&amp;o=1&amp;p=8&amp;l=as1&amp;asins=B0086N7AHY&amp;ref=qf_sp_asin_til&amp;fc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;lt1=_blank&amp;m=amazon&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;bc1=000000&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;f=ifr\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today Cardinal Timothy Dolan has released a small book called True Freedom: On Protecting Human Dignity and Religious Liberty It\u2019s easy to take religious freedom for granted.
