| Summary: |
The relationship between religion and public
power — or religious creeds and the state, if
preferred — is not an easy issue. For centuries it
has been a social and political problem. Nowadays
it remains as one of the most complex subjects
legislators and courts must face. The Jurisprudence
of the Supreme Court of the United States is
extremely enlightening as to the path other
countries should follow, such as Spain, since they
have been dealing with this matter for decades,
guided by the freedom of choice and neutrality the
State must respect. It would seem useful to
reexamine it now that the problem of the presence
of religious symbols in public spaces (crucifixes and
crosses in public schools) has arisen. |
