In Acts 4, Peter and John are accused of spreading "propaganda." They were banned from the public arena and threatened with severe punishments if they continued speaking. Sadly, their experience is the norm in most parts of the world as approximately 70% of the earth's population live in nations where religious liberty is highly restricted. This is because religious liberty is itself a religious value, and secularism does not share or respect that value. Religious toleration is an idea that germinated in the soil of biblical truth. These rights come from God and apply to all men. This is why the free speech rights of the non-believer would be far more secure in a Christian republic than in a secular democracy.
