Classical Liberalism Germ Exists In All Faiths.
It is important to draw attention to the need for
'the removal of religious prejudice' from the economic literature associated
with classical liberalism. It makes sense historically to regard Christianity as the
most favorable to classical liberalism. Of course it is true that its roots are
there but it is not true that the essence of classical liberalism did not
originate within the other Faiths also. Circumstances were favorable (feudalism) during
the evolution of Christianity such that it enabled classical liberalism to significantly
influence the shape of civilization, the Western civilization. The classical
liberalism seed in the other Faiths was prevented from growing to such a
glorious extent but that does not mean that it was not planted or that it did
not germinate.
