FREEDOM OF CONSCIENCE: FOUNDATION FOR HUMAN RIGHTS, EDUCATION AND LASTING PEACE FROM AN EVANGELICAL PERSPECTIVE

Summary/Abstract: Freedom of Conscience: Foundation for Human Rights, Education, and Lasting Peace from an Evangelical Perspective. In a world increasingly characterized by pluralism, rapid social change, and persistent conflict, the value of freedom of conscience stands as a universal moral and legal imperative. Freedom of conscience, defined as the internal liberty to form beliefs, moral judgments, and ethical values without external coercion, is not only a personal right but also a cornerstone of democratic societies. It underpins the broader architecture of human rights, empowers meaningful and transformative education, and fosters the essential conditions for lasting peace. The interdependence of these pillars, freedom of conscience, human rights, education, and peace, reveals a foundational truth: that peaceful, just, and inclusive societies cannot be realized without a deep and abiding respect for the sanctity of individual conscience.
