Religious Liberty
See also: Freedom of religion and Separation of church and state"Seventh-day Adventists believe that freedom of religion is a basic human right." The Adventist church has been active for over 100 years advocating for freedom of religion for all people, regardless of faith. In 1893 its leaders founded the International Religious Liberty Association, which is universal and non-sectarian. The Seventh-day Adventist Church State Council serves to protect religious groups from legislation that may affect their religious practices.
The church publishes the magazine Liberty.

“... it is seldom a medical man has true religious views—there is too much pride of intellect.”
