Getting on with each other may sound anodyne, but it is the soup America needs to sup in these divisive days One of the most important issues in this debate is how liberalism justifies its distinctive toleration for multiple different and inconsistent forms of life and systems of value – its remarkable impartiality, (currently in the Trump era non-existent; latitudinarian they are not) in political terms, among diverse conceptions of the human good, and its commitment to allow individuals to seek their own salvation or self-realisation provided they do not interfere with the same freedom of others.
This commitment to toleration, can be justified only by a strong moral conviction that it is right –
but is it right? if it is, how is it?
