Summary
This short conclusory chapter summarizes the main claims of the book and summarizes how the book has provided evidence to support those claims. It shows that the book’s overall contribution then is to have demonstrated that there is, and there should be in a liberal state, a general right to conscientious exemption available to a person who objects to any legal obligation on the basis of a religious or non-religious conscientious belief.
