Why is freedom of expression an important right in American society? People must be able to share ideas without fear of punishme

nt to participate in civic life. Defendants on trial have a right to representation from an attorney to help defend them. Early leaders of the nation supported it, but the freedom no longer requires protection. Without freedom of expression, people would not be able to vote in elections.

Answer:

People must be able to share the ideas without the fear of punishment to participate in civic life.

Explanation:

Freedom of expression is one of the most important fundamental right granted by the US constitution to the citizens.<em> It is the right to speak freely about the important issues, access information</em>. It is important because it affects other rights and creates a healthy environment for the development of an individual or group of people. <em>Lack of freedom of expression mostly affects the marginalised people of the society  as in its absence they wont be able to express views, worries or to oppose the discrimination against them.</em>

Quotation taken from a 1788 essay, the seventh by a Maryland Farmer. It says, Civil and religious liberty are inseparably interw
Vikki [24]

I've read the essay and the correct answer is definitely "A government that is good at securing civil liberties will also keep religious liberties".

The Maryland farmer makes it pretty clear in his closing statement, which reads: "Civil and religious liberty are inseparably interwoven—whilst government is pure and equal—religion will be uncontaminated:—The moment government becomes disordered, bigotry and fanaticism take root and grow—they are soon converted to serve the purpose of usurpation, and finally, religious persecution reciprocally supports and is supported by the tyranny of the temporal powers".

Both civil and religious liberties need to be secured by a government. The point he's stressing in the essay is that often times religious freedom is compromised as a <u>consequence</u> of ineffective protection of civil liberties.

Another quote from the essay that illustrates this idea very well would be the following: "where civil government is preserved free, there can be no religious tyranny".

At the same time, the farmer cites historical examples in which an imposed religion was used by governments to persecute people that didn't share the dominant beliefs, establishing a religious tyranny that severly overpassed civil liberties. This is why the integrity of both civil and relgious freedom are unequivocally interwoven and must be protected side by side.


Hope this helps!
