      It would solve a lot of problems though.

      How about this, freedom to practice your religion, but only in private places. Like a “Don’t Say Doctrine” law

        It’s really tempting to agree to ban public displays and mention of homosexuality if we can also do so for all religion. It’s a one step backwards, two miles forward situation…

        I mean that’s what France was going for when they banned burqas, the idea was that people are free to express their religion privately but not in public. I personally think if you’re going to take people’s rights to wear a certain piece of fabric in a certain way away like that, the ends definitely don’t justify the means.

      I kind of always thought that’s why the first amendment said there should be no national religion
