Religious freedom in Israel: Christianity doing well
(Ilanit Chernick) The discussion is termed “Holy to Many: Views on Religious Freedom.” In a joint event with the Israel Democracy Institute, the US State Department will be discussing the Israel chapter of its recently released 2018 International Religious Freedom Report on Monday in Jerusalem. The report analyzed whether and how the country’s laws and Supreme Court rulings are protecting “the freedoms of conscience, faith, religion and worship, regardless of an individual’s religious affiliation,” and how the 1992 Basic Law: Human Dignity and Liberty protects additional individual rights.
