Abstract
In this chapter, I discuss the question of religious exemption as an inescapable implication of religious pluralism. It is discussed from the point of view of political philosophy and the debate it has created surrounding the issue of religious freedom and freedom of conscience; namely, whether religious claims and, more generally, claims of conscience in pluralistic societies should be granted exemptions from generally applicable laws.
