Abstract
AbstractThis article argues that the rules governing religious contributions to public debates are unnecessarily restrictive and grounded in a faulty understanding of the nature of all truth claims. After critically assessing the current limits on arguments made in the public domain, this study analyses the Ramsey Colloquium’s statement on ‘The Homosexual Movement’ as a paradigmatic illustration of the difficulties that accompany the public proclamation of religious convictions. It suggests that the rules currently governing cultural conversations marginalize distinctive religious contributions and call into question the reality of a genuine marketplace of ideas.
