		Periodically Sunni religious leaders are detained and accused of being Wahhabi spies.

		Even were this only a sequential connection, nonetheless it consolidates the general impression conveyed by the Qur'an that the religious roots of the Muhammadan message emanate from the Jewish prophets, and that the journey is in a sense a confirmation of this religious heritage.
		Religious design may still posit Jerusalem as the terrestrial gateway to the divine world, for example, through the story of Muhammad's night journey and ascension, a tradition whose significance seems universally unappreciated.
		Especially given the unique way in which Jerusalem is regarded by followers of these religious, both in terms of its role in the past as well as in terms of its status in the future, it is incumbent on the contending parties to pursue a course of convergence and harmonisation.

	Major Religions Ranked by Size
		The list was created by the same people who collected and organized this database, in consultation with university professors of comparative religions and scholars from different religions.
		This list is based primarily on the degree of doctrinal/theological similarity among all the various sub-groups which belong to these classifications, and to a lesser extent based on diversity in practice, ritual and organization.
		As is typical with a religious group made up primarily of converts, Baha'is who drift from active participation in the movement are less likely to retain nominal identification with the religion -- because it was not the religion of their parents or the majority religion of the surrounding culture.

	Religious Freedom: City of Boerne v. Flores, Archbishop of San Antonio, et al (1997)
		The principle of religious "free exercise" and the notion that religious liberty deserved legal protection were by no means new concepts in 1791, when the Bill of Rights was ratified.
		See S. Cobb, The Rise of Religious Liberty in America 492 (1902) (reprint 1970) (noting that Madison objected to the word "toleration" as belonging to "a system where was an established Church, and where a certain liberty of worship was granted, not of right, but of grace").
		Moreover, Jefferson believed that "`[e]very religious society has a right to determine for itself the time of these exercises, and the objects proper for them, according to their own particular tenets; and this right can never be safer than in their own hands, where the Constitution has deposited it.'" Ibid.

	China: Religious Persecution Persists
		The history of religious activity in China, and that of ”western“ religions in particular, reinforces the official view that ”hostile elements from abroad,“ in conjunction with Chinese dissidents, intend to use religion to destabilize China, then overthrow its legitimate government.

		In particular, governments should urge China to abolish the distinction between ”normal“ and ”abnormal“ religious activities in its constitution and religious regulations; to extend the right of religious belief to minors and to set up universities dedicated mainly to religious education.
