There is a very strong link between religious liberty and the preservation of a democratic state, according to the former U.S. ambassador to the Holy See.
Mary Ann Glendon, a law professor at Harvard University, affirmed this link when she discussed an international symposium to be held Sept. 25-26 in Mexico City.
"Voices: The Secular State and Religious Liberty" will consider the state of religious freedom on the whole American continent.
The event will cover "a variety of topics, from the application of religious liberty in an international context, to specific issues in several countries of the American continent," organizers explained.
Experts from Canada to Chile will focus on philosophical principles, historical antecedents and challenges that religious liberty faces in American countries, particularly Mexico.
