Compelling interest isn’t the only component of strict scrutiny. Learn the law before you post this slippery slope blather.

Regardless of the other (subjective) tests, "compelling government interest" has never been explicitly defined. So it can be used to restrict anything the current government doesn't like and once they break the barrier and start coming down on things that have always been understood to have special protection, its all downhill. There is nothing that ensures that "narrowly tailored" and "least restrictive" are actually anything of the kind by any logical standard.

But I digress, you are clearly the only one here who knows basic legal facts. We'll all just defer to your defense of government overreach into a long-protected religious practice.
