The Dutch constitution explicitly mentions faith based discrimination.
"Allen die zich in Nederland bevinden, worden in gelijke gevallen gelijk behandeld. Discriminatie wegens godsdienst, levensovertuiging, politieke gezindheid, ras, geslacht of op welke grond dan ook, is niet toegestaan"
I assume the US Constitution does not?
- tobinfricke 4y agoIt's not in the US constitution, but it's in federal and state laws, especially concerning employment and housing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_group https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_group
- ch4s3 4y agoThe civil rights act covers faith based discrimination in employment, housing, public accommodation, etc. The constitution here prohibits the establishment(or preferential treatment) of a religion by government.
- Georgelemental 4y agoThe US Constitution sets out what our government can and can't do. And one of the things it can't do is discriminate based on religion. But there is almost nothing in our Constitution restricting the actions of private citizens; that is left for normal laws to take care of.
