Christian Dignity And The Overlapping Consensus, Frederick Mark Gedicks
BYU Law Review

Liberal Democracy And The Right To Religious Freedom, Aldir Guedes Soriano
BYU Law Review
Foremost, this paper examines the current situation of the rights to religious freedom and democracy around the world, which deserve attention and concern. Civil liberties are currently in crossfire.
