Abstract

The orthodox Hindu objection to the classic formulation of religious freedom, as seen in the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other charters, is with the Judeo-Christian origin or bias in these secular frameworks. It argues that in the application of laws protecting religious freedom, the secular framework erroneously presupposes a similarity between Semitic religions and Hinduism. Consequently, the secular framework applies Judeo-Christian anthropological assumptions that favor conversionary religions, which function against the interests of Asiatic religions.
