Abstract

The religious and conscience rights emerge with force in the last decades with the constitutional and legal ordinances of the democratic societies, such as the Colombian one.

At the present time, the topic of religious fundamentalism is playing a big role in the world. Many religious groups are ascending and getting involved in political activities, especially in Latin America; without ceasing to recognize that they become relevant social actors. These groups, however, are questioned from numerous sides.

The religious and worship freedom in Colombia, has had a historic, constitutional and legal development; as well as the jurisprudential evolution of the constitutional court rulings between 1991-2015.The influences and implications from the International and Inter-American human rights, have to be taken into account and consideration.

The main reason for addressing the constitutional right for religious freedom in Colombia, allows for a crucial historic analysis of said right and the implications it has in society.
