Freedom of Religion is continuously debated in Americas society. Man has his natural laws of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, but he is not always allowed to express his religious aspects. It is common courtesy in todays society to respect others "social peace" and do ones best not to offend one another. However, this seems to be stretched to the point of limiting freedom of religious expression. People are bothered by some religious expression. I have peers who, at the beginning of prayer, say "please prepare yourself in the manner you are accustomed, unless your Muslim." this shocked me to the point of asking that person if he was serious and he informed me that him and several others were "made uncomfortable" by religious expression from certain religions. This made me realize that maybe religion is not as free as we think. So please respond to this prompt below:
-To what extent is our freedom of religion in America limited by societys ideal of "social peace"?-
Feel free to give examples of your personal religious limitations placed upon you.
Thank you
