Voltaire's Views On Freedom Of Thought

Voltaire thinks that most of the world’s suffering and conflict were a result of religious intolerance. He believes that people should have “freedom of thought” (136), which to me means that everyone should be able to practice their specific religion freely and speak to what they thought was right or wrong. Voltaire makes the argument that God made us all, therefore, we are all brothers. If we all believe in God, then what difference does it make that our view differs from one another. “Loving one’s neighbor as one’s self”.
