Not at all. I mean you do not have the right to "not be offended" by another person's observation of religion. If a person prays silently before their meal and you are uncomfortable, tough.

BTW, the unofficial state religion is secularism/humanism/atheism. They have no problem forcing that on the rest of us.

I fully agree. There is no right to not be offended.

In your opinion, would it be possible for the state to be neutral towards religion, neither helping it or hindering it in any way, or would neutrality in itself constitute promotion of atheism?
