FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
“But in recent years there has been a clear trend for courts in Europe and
North America to prioritise equality and non-discrimination above religion,
placing the right to religious freedom in danger.
“There should not be a hierarchy of rights, but it should be possible to take
account of all of them in some way.”
He added: “No State can be a functioning democracy unless it allows its
citizens to manifest their beliefs about what is most important in life.”
In a new book, titled Equality, Freedom and Religion, he warned of a
“worrying” trend of the courts placing their own definitions of what is
“core to a religion’s belief system”.
He called for the rights to be “balanced” and that “reasonable accommodation”
should become a standard thought by judges.
Prof Trigg, a member of the university’s faculties of Theology and Philosophy,
highlighted one case that had come before the European Court of Human
Rights.
In that case a civil registrar from Islington had refused to conduct civil
partnership ceremonies because of her religious beliefs.
He added: “It should have been easy to find a solution here … but the need to
respect the right to equality trumped the freedom of religious convictions
in this instance.
“The courts seem to have taken it upon themselves to decide what is and isn’t
core to belief in a particular religion.”
