    Freedom of Religion is just the right not to be forced to adhere to a specific religion by the state, it is not some sort of super-constitutional right that lifts every rule of every religion up to constitutional right status.

        No, it actually doesn’t do that either. It only protects you from persecution by the state, not persecution in general. There might very well be other parts of the law in any given country that do but Freedom of Religion does not.

        It’s the religious side which demands persecution, which threatens people (and sometimes much more).

        Seems weird to paint it on the protesters, because they could, all while the religious side is already busy doing so.

          How are you persecuted by muslim or jewish people in any EU country?

          The only religion that does have some level of persecution power there is christianity and for what its worth we managed to keep them at bay for the last 20 years. Now in Poland Hungary & co. they tend to get more powerful with their anti LGBT stances again, but that also seems to coincide with hatred against muslims.

            Dude what have jews to do with anything in that situation? Are you really trying to imply that fundamentalist and conservative muslims are tolerant towards others? And it’s not that we don’t know what happens if they ever manage to get societal power.
