THE RIGHT OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM AND ILLEGAL ABUSE OF FAITH
Palavras-chave:
Religious institutions, religion freedom, religion definition, illegal practices, bankruptcy, anticorruption, crimesResumo
Religious institutions occupy a unique place in human culture. Although they have a protected right to govern and manage their own affairs spreading religious doctrine, they must keep their moral and legal obligations and avoid being used for illegal practices. This paper tries to review some definitions showing the importance of guaranteeing religious freedom without allowing such freedom to be abused for illicit purposes.
