Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.Religious discrimination is valuing or treating a person or group differently because of what they do or do not believe. A concept like that of ''religious discrimination'' is necessary to take into account ambiguities of the term religious persecution. The infamous cases in which people have been executed for beliefs perceived to be heretic are generally recognisable as persecution; Other cases in which adherents of different religions (or denominations) are treated unequally before the law are sometimes difficult to assess. If behind laws, regulations or acts of authority perceived to be discriminating against a certain religion there is the intention ''encourage'' people to abandon their beliefs, they are religious persecution nonetheless; But if they don''t threaten the death penalty or severe imprisonment, they are in comparison described as mild forms of religious persecution or as religious discrimination.
