	Belgium
		The Liberals returned to the Chambers, the Catholics sacrificing their overwhelming majority in their desire for the representation of every shade of opinion to be found in the electoral body, thus substituting the three parties for the two which had divided the power previous to 1893.
		According to the census of 31 December, 1905, the population of Belgium is 7,160,547.
		The Liberals have contented themselves with founding a university (subsidized by the city of Brussels and the province of Brabant) and an insignificant number of schools, and are generally satisfied with State instruction for their children; this instruction they endeavour to make as neutral, that is, as irreligious as possible.

		Liberalism developed during the 17th to 19th centuries as the distinctive theory of the industrial and commercial classes in their struggle against the power of the monarchy, the church, and the feudal landowners.
		In the late 19th and early 20th centuries its ideas were modified by the acceptance of universal suffrage (voting rights for all citizens) and a certain amount of state intervention in economic affairs, in order to ensure a minimum standard of living and to remove extremes of poverty and wealth.
		Liberalism is not a sin, it is a necessary part of a great whole, which whole would collapse and fall to pieces without it.

	WHKMLA : Restauration - the State and the Catholic Church
		The papal administration rejected the loss of church property, the state having taken over traditional church responsibilities (civil registry; civil marriage and divorce; priest seminaries which insisted on the priests swearing loyalty to the state; state takeover of the universities, the confiscation of church property, the strict separation of church and state).
		Yet when (Catholic) Belgium separated from the (Calvinist) Netherlands, Catholicism was the bracket that held the Flemish and Walloon people together; explicitly Catholic politicians, with the blessing of the pope, actively participated in party politics.
		In Switzerland, liberal politicians, in an attempt to modernize the state, pushed for the separation of church and state and the expulsion of the Jesuits, and the Catholic cantons resisted, a situation which lead to the brief Sonderbund War of 1847.

	Liberalism Is A Sin -- CHAPTER 13 The Name "Liberalism"
		The journal that seeks to be Catholic and at the same time has the name or reputation of Liberal becomes in the general opinion an ally of those who, under the Liberal banner, combat the Church in front and rear.
		When they see an ostensibly Catholic journal practically making common cause with the Liberal creed by sanctioning its name, they are easily led into the dangerous belief that Liberalism has some affinity with their faith, and this once engrafted in their minds, they become ready adepts of Rationalism.
		Most to be feared, however, is not he who openly boasts his Liberalism, but he who eschews the name and, vehemently denying it, is yet steeped to the lips in it and continually speaks and acts under its inspiration.

		compared to conservatives, liberals had a greater belief in human capacity for rationality or in the ability of humans to respond to the ultimate rationality in universe as embodied in the ‘laws’ and forces.
		these liberals were leaders of the Anti-Corn Law League and opponents of the Navigation Acts; they were attempting to destroy mercantilism and to implement ‘free trade’ (the campaign was successful in the 1840s when both the corn laws—protective tariffs on wheat— and the Navigation Acts were abolished).
