It is my ancient religious belief that fingerprints hold information about an individual's destiny which can be read. I will not provide any biometric identifiers beyond a standard photo on the grounds that it might incriminate me. Plead the 5th and remind them that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion ..."

This is a nice argument, but the Courts have held that if a law is passed for a legitimate public policy without an intent to discriminate against a religous or other group, then everyone has to obey it even if it is contrary to their religious beliefs.

Now if a law is passed to pick on a particular group then it is unconstitutional. 80 years ago, Georgia passed a law that declared any residence containing more than 4 unrelated females a brothel and thus illegal. The legislative intent was anti-Catholic -- Governor Watson wanted to shut down convents. The law stayed on the books (as the story was related to me) until college sororities started to complain.

When you hear about Muslim women who demand a drivers license picture with their faces covered, they won't have a leg to stand on if the state fights it in court (though in our PC era, most states would rather cave than fight).
