There are plenty (!) of threads on FR that deal with specifics of various religions. I hope this thread doesn’t get into a debate about HOW and WHY people practice their religion.

THIS is about freedom. I will defend all Constitutional rights.

I hope this thread doesn’t get into a debate about HOW and WHY people practice their religion.

It is destined to do so.

Well; Christianity anyway...

¹³ Now who is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is good? ¹⁴ But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled, ¹⁵ but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect, ¹⁶ having a good conscience, so that, when you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame. ¹⁷ For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that should be God's will, than for doing evil.

Some things trump the Constitution.

But isn't that the very definition of the freedom you claim to support? To be able to discuss the pros and cons of a topic?

Many threads on FR delve off onto various paths.

If some want to debate the topic what is that to you?

That's what's called freedom of speech....part of those Constitutional rights you claim to defend.
