Abstract

Investigate and identify the predominant religious culture in the Brazilian population is essential to the understanding of socio-legal choices made   in Brazil. To find the origin of the Christian pattern that surrounds the majority of the population, it becomes possible to understand the legal institutions based on such a belief. Nevertheless, even if they share certain religion by the vast majority of the Brazilian people, one must ponder the rights of Christian minorities not being violated. Only a secular state gives due respect to religious freedom in its fullness.
