But where you and I separate is whether the exercise of one's conscience should be cost free.

I think I get it now. The freedom of conscience part is that no one can make you take an action that's against your conscience. The corollary is that neither does your conscience entitle you to take an action contrary to the rules for all of us.

Which would mean that freedom of conscience is really the freedom to be left alone to do your own thing as long as you don't cause problems.

Which, once again, is the same as just plain freedom.

No?

Wind is picking up now...
