Hence why I said partially, the idea is to protect peoples religious ideas

People being rich or connected enough to subvert the rules and treat people like crap are definitely a city thing.

yep, fuck houston

People who view people who are religious (or a religion not their own) as defective humans are people who religion is protected from

Tis

lots of beating around the bush, anything you wanna say?

I believe I said it

The hobby lobby ruling was correct because the 1st amendment was written for x purpose

Granted things like sacrificing animals or being violent are not protected because that infringes on other peoples rights

However the religious requirement to wear an object or garb is not something you can prohibit

There was that one voodoo guy in FLorida tho

Yeah but fuck Florida

Ive been there

It sucks

Religious people are defective- but as long as they aren't harming anyone they can indulge in their madness 🤔

Florida is a testament to the arrogance of man

a lotta memes though

bad food

Humans have a natural spiritual inclination generally

So if you dont

Only those who can not find the answer they are looking for

Then you are defective 🤔

Or are scared of the ones they know

If you are willing to kill/die for a made up construct you are mentally defective tbh

wether religion is a deficiency is irrelevant, I'm not a "militant athiest" wishing to take that away from them, I'm just mindful of the few that wish to game the system based on nought but their beliefs

And what if you arent willing yo kill for your religion

Are you still mentally defective?

Most sane and rational people dont want to kill other people

whether sikhs can be trusted with knives in any number of circumstances is irrelevant, they're still being afforded a priviledge others aren't based on something that, frankly, can't be measured

Their faith requires them to carry a blunted dagger it is a religious object related to their faith

So is their turban

its little better than saying someone else gets to bring something into the cab that you can't because they're more patriotic than you or some shit

If you are willing to concede your god might not be real or at the very least is not worth killing and/or dying over you may end up marginalised by your community <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

I am not willing to posit the idea I may be wrong to people who are not willing to extend the same courtesy

I know in Africa (having seen it) denying god in some parts or those whose faith was found wanting were executed 🤷

If your boogeyman reaches down from the skies and says "storin my dude, i'm real" I'll convert, till then it doesn't exist

And in china millions died who refused to relinquish their faith by state mandate

well hearing its blunted is a detail that shifts my concerns a bit, but still

Because if he does exist then you have to justify every ail this world suffers

I suppose I should amend my statement to firearms

Most people carry knives of a sort
