Religious Conviction in Liberal Politics

Eberle's book is in places a very interesting look at the subject of religion in liberal politics. Unfortunately, his treatment of many liberal views is misguided. For those looking for strong critiques of liberal giants such as Rawls, Eberle ultimately proves disappointing. To take Rawls as an example, Eberle seems to misunderstand some fairly basic elements of Rawls' argument. He treats Rawls' principles as principles meant to apply to government intervention into citizens' lives, something that Rawls does not at all intend. Rawls' argument is more that these principles need to be applied to the formulation of the basic structure of society, not to each action of the government(which is formed only after the principles for the basic structure are agreed on). Thus, Eberle's critiques, while seemingly powerful, are aimed at defeating arguments that Rawls never makes and are in fact contrary to what Rawls advocates.



Ultimately, Eberle does not address many of the strongest arguments that liberal thinkers have put forth.
