"If one wants to answer the question of whether freedom of conscience has any value as a defense against damages, one has to put the character in a position of having done damage."

I am conceding that I do not think 'freedom of conscience' is a defense against damages.

However, I also still believe the two concepts are incompatible. Consider that for a moment. You have made valiant efforts to come up with a damage scenario. It might help you to understand your frustration with that, if you can get your mind around the concept of incompatibility.

So, the premise of 'if there are damages' is a false premise to make any kind of deterimination about Freedom of Conscience. IMO
