Australian is currently debating a law to protect religious rights, commonly thought as a law to allow Christians to be bigots. The PM is a "happy clapper".

Except, "religious rights" trump human rights, every time.

Any absolute right for a person would negate rights for others, That is why the law needs to maximize them and not absolutely guarantee them. It is always a trade of.
Absolute freedom of speech can generate abuses ans the fake news epidemy.
private property abuses can generate example of villages without water because a factory (Nestle) bought the lands around the sole source of water and then close the tap for the rest of the village.
And other many examples.

religion is part of culture and for some people it is impossible to separate the religion from their identity. And sometimes force a community that has this belief to do the contrary is simply generating hatred amongst them, but at the same time it is easy to claim freedom of religion to go around the law. Tat is why those stuff need to be watched case by case.

They are now

Unless they are.

Yeah, I Madison is correct but I think in real life it matters who's in power. If pence becomes Pres guess what.
