Fitzgerald's Letter 1 Linwood Avenue Pouehkeepsie, N. T, June 24, 1937. Editor, Duplin Times. I read with a great deal of in terest about the Centennial cele bration of the Eenansville Bap tist church. - Our Baptist brethren have made a splendid contribution to the cause of religious freedom. They founded Bhode Island, which ac cording to Judge Story was the first commonwealth dedicated to real religious freedom "since Christianity ascended the throne of the Caesars." That is to say since Christianity became the' fa vored religion of the Boman em pire under Constantine. ' . Of the original thirteen colonies' only Bhode Island and Pennsyl vania had no established church. The second named colony lacked little of having absolute religious equality. They did restrict cer tain privileges to those who ack nowledged Jesus Christ as Saviour of the world." ' . The first amendment to the Federal constitution says: "Cong ress shall make'; no law respecting the establishment of ia religion, or prohibiting the;' free exercise thereof." At a great .price obtain ed we this freedom.' Kussia and Mexico may have no state church, but they do interfere in Uie free exercise of religion. . If I read the signs of the times aright we need the combined wis dom of us all to determine the future- what' is the real 'meaning of religious freedom. The inscription on Thomas Jef ferson's tombstone says: "The au thor of the Declaration of Inde pendence, the Founder of the Uni versity of Virginia, the author of the Statute in Virginia for Bell gious Liberty." v ' i-o joy ir.p.ty r piness and v "s tf L. i.
