"Revolt in 2100 & Methuselah's Children" by Robert A. Heinlein
https://www.amazon.com/Revolt-in-2100-Methuselahs-Children/dp/B0073AOTZ2/

A two-fer science fiction book with a standalone first novelette and the
second novelette being the first story about Lazarus Long. There are
also two short stories between the novelettes, each loosely connected to
the novellettes. I reread the well printed and well bound MMPB
published by Baen in 1999 that I bought 20+ years ago.

The following stories are in the book:
1. Revolt in 2100 - the revolt in the USA against the religious prophets
who had seized power in 2016 and established a theocracy
2. Coventry - set after 2100 about a man who refused to follow the
normal behavior with other citizens and was exiled to Coventry with the
other behavioral problem people and the remainder of the theocracy believers
3. Misfit - the first story about Andrew Jackson Libby, the inventor of
the Libby-Sheffield FTL (faster than light) star drive
4. Methuselah's Children - the first story about the Howard Foundation
for long life and Lazarus Long, and their hijacking of the New Frontiers
generation ship and fleeing the Solar System with 100,000+ members of
the Howard Families

All four of these stories are contained in other Heinlein anthologies
and standalone books, most notably "The Past Through Tomorrow: Future
History Stories" by Robert A. Heinlein.

My rating: 6 out of 5 stars
Amazon rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars (6 reviews)

Excellent ! I just got schooled on Reddit. “Revolt In 2100” is also
called “If This Goes On”.
