‘Attacks on Religious Liberty’ in US Increased 133 Percent in Last 5 Years: Report


(Worthy News) – A new report released by a prominent religious liberty advocacy organization claims that there has been a 133 percent increase in domestic “attacks on religious liberty” in the last five years and about a 15 percent increase in attacks on religious liberty in the last year.

The First Liberty Institute, a conservative legal group dedicated to defending people and organizations whose First Amendment rights have been violated, released its annual report, “Undeniable: The Survey of Hostility to Religion in America,” on Tuesday.

The report highlights cases reported in the last few years in which Americans have had their religious liberty rights infringed or “attacked” in one way or another — either in the public arena, in the military, in schools or even within church walls.

“In this edition, the total number of documented incidents in this report increased by over 15 percent over the past year and now includes more than 1,400 religious liberty incidents,” the report states.

Compared to 2011, when there were 600 reported cases, the number of religious liberty incidents has increased by 133 percent. [ Source (Read More…) ]
