The conference titled “Religious Freedom at Crossroads: The Rise of Anti-Christian Sentiment in the West” was the first event of its kind in Australia.
“There is a need to protect religious freedom in this country. I think religious freedom is under threat,” Professor Augusto Zimmermann, Head of Law at Sheridan College and the conference organizer, told audience members at Sheridan College in Perth on June 14-15. Zimmermann is also President of the Western Australian Legal Theory Association and Editor-in-Chief of the Western Australian Jurist law journal.
