| Summary: | As illustrated by the debate over contraception coverage within US healthcare reform, potential conflict between religious freedom and nondiscrimination is a matter of immense contemporary relevance. It is perhaps especially salient in the United States, where, in a highly pluralistic culture with a seeming readiness to resort to litigation as a first-line mode for resolving conflicts, numerous religious freedom provisions are increasingly encountering an expanding field of other civil rights guarantees., In Equality, Freedom, and Religion, philosopher Roger Trigg canvasses the apparent tension between religious liberty and the principle of equality within modern liberal democracies. |
