Common meaning:

The right for an individual to follow their own beliefs regarding religion and morality.

Hidden meaning of the Equity religion: 

Requiring everyone to see the light and follow Equity ideology.

Discussion:

Equity says that it is wrong for people to be allowed to follow their own individual beliefs regarding religion and morality. Everyone must convert to Equity, either by choice or, if necessary, by force.

One of the liberal ideals that most people in the West have not had to think much about in a long time is freedom of conscience. We have grown comfortable not worrying about conforming to a particular religious ideology, but Equity wants to change that. Equity and Diversity officers of the Equity religion are being hired by businesses throughout the Western world to ensure that everyone is following the religion, even if it is against their own conscience.

The reason that the Equityists think it is justified to remove people’s right to have freedom of conscience, is they believe they have discovered the key that will unlock a world that is free of oppression. Harming a few of the oppressors today in order to create a utopian tomorrow, seems not only reasonable, but necessary. 

This is a very dangerous path.
