This book uses analytical prose to explore the social, religious, and philosophical clashes that occurred when slight variations in faith boiled over into public discord and strife. The author uses historical context to examine the relationship between faith and the inability of contemporaries to synthesize and reconcile religious ideas with one another, using England during the seventeenth century as a case study. This book examines the futility of religious bloodshed, the societal fractures caused by religious divisions, the relationship between faith and fear, and the role of government in calming religious tensions and preventing religious persecution. By examining how religious wars become normalized, the author sheds light on how we can learn from the mistakes of the past to prevent religious persecution in the future.
