The tennis line between the exercise of the right of religious freedom in face of hate speech.

Abstract

Religious intolerance has become a social malaise in Brazil and its causes are diverse, highlighting, in this study, the spread of religious intolerance in social networks. In this context, it is sought to verify to what extent the religious manifestations given in social networks surpass the freedom of religious manifestation, configuring itself in discourse of hatred. The choice of the theme is justified by its theoretical and practical relevance, given the tenuous line that exists the free right to express and the propagation of the odious manifestations due to religion. The right to free expression of thought in social networks is democratically legitimate at the moment when it does not reproduce violence, exclusion and, moreover, does not encourage unequal treatment between people. It is a theoretical-bibliographic research, documental, starting from the deductive premise of the historical panorama of the construction of individual freedoms, and delimiting the analysis in the religious intolerance, propagated in the social networks.
