Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Portia's decision not to eat meat is based on her moral and ethical beliefs, which fall under freedom of conscience. However, this freedom is limited, meaning that employers may have the right to require employees to attend work-related events, like the barbeque. Portia is exercising her right of freedom of conscience by asking to be excused, but it may not necessarily be granted.
