Deskripsi
In this study, we have decided to do an analysis of consciousness, thought and religion through the prism of the concept of freedom. The authors of the European Convention on Human Rights agreed to protect not only the private and family life of the individual, his/her correspondence and residence but also his/her inner self, i.e. thought, conscience and religion that he/she chooses. Art. 9 of the Convention grants every person the freedom of thought, conscience and religion and the right to manifest beliefs and religion. Religious beliefs cannot be limited to the major religions, but what is certain is that religion must be identifiable.
