Freedom of religion has its dangers we never thought about. In this case, a political movement that uses religion as a shield.
I am done with the idea of "Freedom of Religion". Discernment is required.
Religious organizations have always been used as an instrument of political control by the rulers of the times.
Some religions are much worse than others in practice.
Some religious behaviors simply cannot be tolerated. For example, Thuggee, the Kali-worshipper cult, does not make for good travelling experiences. The revival of the Aztec religion, with their blood-stained human sacrifices on the high altar, does not go over well in Peoria. Neither does a full revival of ancient Druid practices, burning people in cages, seem acceptable.
I like most varieties of the Jews. I am fine with most varieties of Christians, and most varieties of Pagan religions as well. Buddhists do not cause much trouble. I am wary of Hindus, because of the caste system that is an integral part of their system.
I am willing to tolerate any religion that does not use violence or coercion to control believers and non-believers.
It is the behavior sanctioned by the Religion that is the determining factor.
Islam is not compatible with or acceptable in a free Western country. They have repeatedly demonstrated that. Expel them all.
“Religion” being the key word.
BTTT
we need a supremacy law that no religious court or edict is above the state laws that are in effect and all rulings can be appealed to our current legal system
Ditto for the Constitution. The Constitution has all the laws and rights codified within it sufficient to destroy IT. That has just about happened and eventually probably will because we have drifted too far away from the Principles it requires to exist as a means for what many consider to be Good.
Our Constitution, maybe with some tweaks or liberties in interpretation, could easily have been the founding document for any form of Government and it can become the same. The courts have proven time and again that only interpretation is needed to change original intent.
