The article intends to present some limits of the public procedure of religious groups, according to Jurgen Habermas' evaluation. It begins with the perception that worldviews based on faith impose, or have imposed, a series of difficulties for the establishment of a plural and democratic order in contemporary secular societies. In methodological terms, the intention is to focus on the discussion of more recent works of the Habermasian writings (2006, 2007, 2010, 2012), evaluating and discussing essential concepts of its reflection on the place of religion in the public sphere. In attempt to clarify the limits of religious procedures in democratic societies, it is necessary to emphasize, as a conclusion, the insufficiency of the neutral stateprinciple defended by Habermas.
