It understands the right of choice or to adhere to a belief or religion. On the other hand, the Brazilian State, that is secular, also by express constitutional determination, should garantee him of that right. However, what happens in some situations, some truths supported by the church, and, consequently by, his followers, this clashes with others fundamental rights, such as the life, the citizenship and the dignity of the human person. The most famous cases involve those that involve the interruption of the pregnancy for anencephalic fetuses and euthanasia/ortothanasia.
