Controversies around religious free speech, symbols, social values and morals, and the role of faith leaders as critical voices are just a few of the issues that have given rise to fierce social, political, and scholarly debate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSo how do states include and accommodate religious diversity, and should this change?
