Spanish term or phrase: pintoresca "libertad" de culto
Contexto (the author had just been talking about separation of Church and State and the freedom of worship afforded by his government's constitution):

Adicionalmente a esa notoria '"separación" entre los organismos mencionados, en todas las escuelas públicas el programa de estudios incluye el curso de la religión, católica por supuesto.

Teniendo como fondo esta pintoresca "libertad" de culto, a continuación el autor ofrece una descripción de situaciones y hechos vividos durante su infancia.

Gracias,

Barbara
