Generations of festering culture wars, compounded by actual wars in
predominantly Muslim countries, the terrorism of Isis, and the
ongoing migrant crisis have all combined to make religious
discrimination the most pressing challenge now facing many
governments. For the leading common law nations, with their shared
Christian cultural heritage balanced by a growing secularism, the
threat presented by this toxic mix has the potential to destabilise
civil society. This book suggests that the instances of religious
discrimination, as currently legally defined, are constrained by
that cultural context, exacerbated by a policy of multiculturalism,
and in practice, conflated with racial, ethnic or other forms of
discrimination. Kerry O'Halloran argues that many culture war
issues - such as those that surround the pro-choice/pro-life debate
and the rights of the LGBT community - can be viewed as rooted in
the same Christian morality that underpins the law relating to
religious discrimination.
