 note = {The legal status of religion everywhere reflects the development of
religious traditions and institutions, shared cultural experiences, and
prevailing ideas about law, government, and individual freedom. While
the United States is often presented as a guide to reconciling the demands
of democracy, diversity, and religious commitment, it is not a universal
ideal, or even a model for all developed democracies. The American
experience is a unique combination of Enlightenment politics, Protestant
Christianity, and constitutional democracy that is unlikely to be repeated.
The historical interaction of those elements, however, offers important
insights into contemporary American politics and may suggest realistic
ways to understand the relationship between religion, law, and society in
other contexts.},
