Humanist hero booed from Guatemalan Congress [View all]
Guatemala is an officially secular country with constitutional protection for religious freedom. However, since 97% of the people are deeply religious—with 65–70% Roman Catholic and the rest mainly evangelical Protestant—most of the population and the leadership think “religious freedom” means “the freedom to be religious.” They don’t think it means “freedom from religion.”
