Article Abstract:
James Madison circulated his pamphlet Remonstrance of 1785 throughout Virginia in resistance to a bill to raise taxes for salaries of clergymen in all the churches that would accept such aid. He presented Christian arguments for the natural right of religious liberty and the Christian language of Madison suggested that between Jacques Maritain's thesis and Walter Berns's thesis about American founding, the Maritain's thesis was correct.
