Religious discrimination in politics

Discrimination in politics on the grounds of religion, including the official banning of certain religious sects and the denial of the right to vote to adherents of a religion other than that officially recognized by the state, hardens religious intolerance and conflict and may lead to war in extreme cases.

The denial of the right to vote on grounds of religion occurs mainly where there is an established state religion.
