Despite the 1948 UN Declaration that freedom of thought, conscience and belief is a universal human right, contemporary political elites have resurrected the old Marxist idea that religion is a crutch for the weak. Contemporary political correctness would outlaw religious free speech whenever it offends. This collection of five research essays by Honour students, staff and friends of the University of Notre Dame's Sydney School of Law: - interrogates the philosophical idea of harm that underlies such offence, - tests whether religious free speech is entitled to the same protection as other speech, - notes the consequences of proscribing the free exercise of religion in totalitarian regimes, - identifies some of the ways in which new gender rights conflict with established freedoms, and - wonders why Singapore, the United States and Australia have all failed to implement the freedom of religion intended of religion in the 1948 UDHR and the 1966 ICCPR. The insights here are not all comfortable, but they confirm that human rights ideas do have consequences.

This book brings together leading international scholars of law and religion to provide an overview of current issues in State-religion relations. The first part of the collection offers a picture of recent developments in key countries and regions. The second part is focused on Europe and, in particular, on the Nordic States and the post-communist countries where State-religion systems have undergone most profound change. The third and final part is devoted to four issues that are currently debated all over the world: the relations between freedom of expression and freedom of religion; proselytism and the right to change religion; the religious symbols; and the legal status of Islam in Europe and Canada. The work will be a valuable resource for academics, students and policy-makers with an interest in the interaction between law and religion.

Current Conflicts In Law And Religion written by Vaughn E. James and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2015 with Civil rights categories.
The core of Current Conflicts in Law and Religion takes the reader through eleven hot-topic issues in law and religion in twenty-first century society: ?The role of religious voices in the political debate; ?Religious voices in the abortion rights debate; ?The legalization of same-sex marriage in the United States; ?The ordination of LGBT clergy; ?Prayer and religious exercises in the public schools; ?The place of the phrase "Under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance; ?Evolution versus Creationism; ?The place of Intelligent Design in the public school curriculum; ?The patient's right to refuse medical treatment based on religious belief; ?The Affordable Care Act, RFRA and the Free Exercise Clause; and ?International issues in law and religion. One could well view that last hot-topic as containing several hot-topics. But, even with counting it as one hot-topic, Professor James has presented in this one book a review of at least eleven hot-topics in law and religion in contemporary society. Yet, the cases the book covers span a vast expanse of time. They are as old as Reynolds v. United States (1879), and as new as Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc. (2014). Two things set this book apart from others that discuss these two clauses of the Constitution. First, the book devotes a lengthy first chapter to discussing the basic tenets of some world religions. Some of these religions are well-known and often talked about; their tenets are well-known, even to non-adherents. Others are not-so-well-known, are even obscure; their tenets are hardly known or talked about. Second, the book begins each chapter with a true story (with names and places changed or otherwise disguised) that depicts one or more of the current conflicts in law and religion. Those who pick it up should prepare to embark upon a journey through world religions, and a journey through the conflicts mankind has created out of something that should unite and foster love. Professor Vaughn E. James is the Robert H. Bean Professor and Director of the LL.M. Program in United States Legal Studies at Texas Tech University School of Law in Lubbock, Texas. An ordained Minister of Religion, Professor James is a graduate of both the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary and Newburgh Theological Seminary. A graduate of Syracuse University College of Law, he is licensed to practice in New York and Texas, in the federal Northern District of Texas, and before the United States Tax Court. He is also an IRS Registered Tax Return Preparer.

"[This book] explores both perennial and recent legal issues that concern the modern state and its interaction with religious communities and individuals. Providing in-depth, original analysis the book includes studies of a wide array of nation states, such as India and Turkey, which each have their own complex issues centred on law, religion and the interactions between the two. Longstanding issues of religious liberty are explored such as the right of conscientious objection, religious confession privilege and the wearing of religious apparel. The contested meanings of the secular state and religious neutrality are revisited from different perspectives and the reality of the international human rights protections for religious freedom are analysed."--
