The concept that I presented looks at them differently. Not as individual concepts that have some limitation but as components of a larger concept that is complete only to the extent that these elements remain inseparably balanced. The contrarian view: If you take the concept of freedom of conscience and treat it as separate and in opposition to personal liberty, then you have the solonistic view. That is, people with strong beliefs feel righteously justified in trampling individual liberty. The representative of individual liberty feels justified in requiring you to conform your expressions of belief to advance his social agenda. What you end up with is people who are told that talent, ability, and honest hard work will be rewarded; where as, they witness something else: The battle of the rights, which never ends up being justice for all; it ends up being beneficial to the one's who are entitled for the moment.
