The state, the society and the individual have distinct roles in preserving these rights. Promoting an environment that is more distinctly protective of these rights is of urgent relevance today. Every individual is free to choose his path to salvation and spirituality. In this world of ours, inter-religious tolerance is shown in spreading religious freedom. We have no right to hate the faith of others.
Religious freedom is a fundamental right, originating from the right of conscience.
Every human mind must be respected. Tahir Mahmood and Karan Singh also pointed to the need for a much greater emphasis not just on legal and constitutional guarantees but also on the practical implementation of religious freedom. Recognition of religious freedom in international law presupposes an absolute equality of all religions. Clearly enough, the claim of superiority of any particular religion over all others would demolish the very foundation of the recognition of religious liberty by the modern human-rights jurisprudence. The attempt to locate in one another's scriptures things which may appear unpalatable to us will lead us nowhere but to mutual hatred.
