This book provides a clear analysis of the historical and theological cases for the easing of religious discrimination against Catholics, particularly in relation to the Coronation Oath taken by British monarchs. The author offers a thorough examination of the history of the oath, highlighting the adaptability of its terms throughout history and the permissions granted by the Monarchs who swore it to members of other faiths, particularly during wartime. The book also offers a deep examination of the nature of oaths and their obligations, drawing on the wisdom of theologians and legal experts to build a persuasive case for reevaluating the oath’s real meaning in light of modern circumstances. These insights lead to the conclusion that a failure to emancipate Catholics is actually a violation of the oath’s intent, which is the preservation of the British state and its church, and that the oath should be seen as an affirmation of the principles of religious tolerance.
