DO NOT use outside source, ONLY USE THE ATTACHED ARTICLES FOR THE ANSWER.
Prothero begins and ends his chapter on Navajo religion with discussions of Navajo religion and the law. The Moodle articles by Dallas (“How Religious Freedom Law Fails Native Americans”) and Kapoor, (“Lithium Mining . . .”) provide further examples and discussion. Please sum up: what is the nature of the conflict here? How do the examples from the readings illustrate the problem? What are the various ways laws and courts have tried to address the issues? How does this conflict drive us back to very basic questions of the definition and characteristics of religion?
