Summary/Abstract: Particular sides of freedom of expression, freedom of religion represent the individual will, free and intellectual to join, to choose a religion. The particular aspect is the fact that religion is not limited by translating them in faith, but gives rise to practices that ensure the free exercise of religion. Conflict of freedom of expression is double this time, both a freedom-freedom of religion, and with a right-the right to observe beliefs. By the present paper we try to answer whether symbolic expression, understood as attitudes, behaviors, wear of badges, uniforms, carrying signs, or religious clothing is an expression or manifestation of belonging to the community and should be allowed to choose or violates other rights?
