Thomas Hobbes did not believe in freedom of religion. Due to this belief he wants the church and the government to fuse, making a department for religion in the government. Hobbes wants to control religion as much as possible so there are no possible wars or disagreements among the people due to religion. John Locke had a very different view about religion than Thomas Hobbes. Compared to Hobbes, Locke had a very lax perspective on religion. He felt the king did not have absolute power, therefore he believed in freedom of religion.
