religious freedom cases

Religious freedom cases involve legal disputes over individuals' or groups' rights to practice their faith without undue interference from the government or others. These cases determine whether laws or policies unfairly restrict religious practices or whether individuals are protected from discrimination based on their beliefs. Courts analyze issues like whether a law serves a compelling government interest and if there are less restrictive ways to achieve that goal. Ultimately, these cases balance the individual's right to religious liberty with the need for societal regulations, ensuring that freedom of belief is respected while maintaining public order.
