ABSTRACT
In Chapter 2, situations of possible clashes between the rights to freedom of expression, freedom of religion and freedom from discrimination were examined. It was argued that, in cases where a person uses expressions that criticise religions or beliefs or that are offensive to religious believers, there is only a conflict between the rights to freedom of expression and freedom of religion if the expressions prevent or deter any religious believers from believing what they wish, or from manifesting their beliefs. In most instances, this is not the case and then the right to freely manifest one’s religion is not engaged at all and thus there is no conflict between these rights.
