    Hot take: The “no prohibiting the free exercise of religion” rule should be updated to “religion should be practiced free as long as it does not seek to subvert democratic institutions, or infringe other people’s human rights”. Anything else will lead to the slow and painful death of secularism.

      Yeah, we need to crack down on religion because they’re oppressing people who want nothing to do with them

        Start a church. They’re tax exempt. In fact, I don’t even think that the IRS is permitted to audit them.

        It’s on my to-do list. Beyond being tax free, you can go out and solicit donations, you can fundraise in a variety of ways, I’ll bet you could get “clergy” passes for parking or any number of conveniences.
