Resumo: | The Federative Republic of Brazil constitutes a secular state, that is, non-confessional, in a way that does not adopt an official religion. Unlike the Political Constitution of the Empire of Brazil of 1824, the Citizen Constitution 1988 establishes a clear separation between religion and state functions, since there can be no state interference in religion, nor will religion delimit any activity of the Republic. In this sense, freedom of religion will be preserved, in a pluralistic conception, to a point that everyone is guaranteed the right to assume a religious belief, to profess it publicly, as well as the right not to choose to practice any religion. However, the preamble to the Constitution contains the express mention of "God", which is why, at one point, it doubted the laicity of the Brazilian State. Thus, the issue of religions of African origin is added to this, from which the State of Rio Grande do Sul raised a relevant constitutional debate by editing the State Code of Animal Protection, excluding, in its art. 2nd, single paragraph, the illegality of animal sacrifice in rituals of this religious confession. Recognizing the membership of Afro-Brazilian religions by a minority of society, the Supreme Federal Court, in the exercise of the counter-majority function, in the case of Extraordinary Appeal No. 494.601/RS, decided on the constitutionality of animal protection law that allows the sacrifice of animals in religious rituals related to African culture, under the foundations articulated throughout this article, produced through qualitative research and based on bibliographic review methodology. |

A diferencia de la Constitución Política del Imperio de Brasil de 1824, la Constitución Ciudadana de 1988 establece una clara separación entre la religión y las funciones del Estado, ya que no puede haber injerencia estatal en la religión, ni esto delimitará ninguna actividad de la República. Así, se preservará la libertad de religión, en una concepción pluralista, hasta el punto de que se garantice a toda persona el derecho a asumir una creencia religiosa, a profesarla públicamente, así como el derecho a no elegir practicar ninguna religión. Sin embargo, el preámbulo de la Constitución contiene la mención expresa de "Dios", razón por la cual, en un momento dado, dudó de la laicidad del Estado brasileño. En este sentido, a esto se suma el tema de las religiones de origen africano, a partir del cual el Estado de Rio Grande do Sul planteó un relevante debate constitucional al editar el Código Estatal de Protección Animal, excluyendo, en su art. 2º, párrafo único, la ilegalidad del sacrificio animal en rituales de este aspecto religioso. Reconociendo la pertenencia de las religiones afrobrasileñas por una minoría de la sociedad, el Supremo Tribunal Federal, en el ejercicio de la función de contramayoría, en el caso del Recurso Extraordinario Nº 494.601/RS, decidió sobre la constitucionalidad de la ley de protección animal que permite el sacrificio de animales en rituales religiosos relacionados con la cultura africana, bajo los fundamentos articulados a lo largo de este artículo, producido a través de la investigación cualitativa y basado en la metodología de revisión bibliográfica.A República Federativa do Brasil constitui um Estado laico, ou seja, não confessional, de maneira que não adota uma religião oficial. Diferentemente da Constituição Política do Império do Brasil, de 1824, a Constituição Cidadã 1988 estabelece uma nítida separação entre a religião e as funções estatais, vez que não pode haver interferência do Estado na religião, nem essa delimitará qualquer atividade da República. Nesse sentido, preservar-se-á a liberdade de religião, numa concepção pluralista, a ponto de a todos ser assegurado o direito de assumir uma crença religiosa, professá-la publicamente, bem como o direito de não escolher praticar religião alguma. Todavia, o preâmbulo da Constituição traz a menção expressa de “Deus”, razão por que, em determinado momento, duvidou-se da laicidade do Estado brasileiro. Assim, soma-se a isso a questão das religiões de matriz africana, a partir da qual o Estado do Rio Grande do Sul suscitou relevante debate constitucional ao editar o Código Estadual de Proteção aos Animais, excluindo, em seu art. 2º, parágrafo único, a ilicitude do sacrifício de animais em rituais dessa vertente religiosa. Reconhecendo a adesão das religiões afro-brasileiras por uma minoria da sociedade, o Supremo Tribunal Federal, no exercício da função contramajoritária, em sede de Recurso Extraordinário nº 494.601/RS, decidiu pela constitucionalidade de lei de proteção animal que permite o sacrifício de animais em rituais religiosos afeitos à cultura africana, sob os fundamentos articulados ao longo do presente artigo, produzido mediante pesquisa qualitativa e com amparo em metodologia de revisão bibliográfica.Research, Society and Development2021-12-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2346110.33448/rsd-v10i16.23461Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 16; e33101623461Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 16; e33101623461Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 16; e331016234612525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/23461/20611Copyright (c) 2021 José Bruno Martins Leão; Bruno Smolarek Dias; Jônatas Luiz Moreira de Paulahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLeão, José Bruno MartinsDias, Bruno Smolarek Paula, Jônatas Luiz Moreira de 2021-12-20T11:03:07Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/23461Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:42:19.507921Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
