I oppose banning religion because I oppose thought policing.

Ban Religion - are you for or against it and why?

Not only this would be against personal privacy and freedom, banning it only makes religious people more radical and offensive, and non-religious people eager to become religious. Religion should not be forced or banned, it should be there for lesser mind to blindly follow it, and everyone else to avoid it.

So you wouldn't ban a cult that sacrifices humans or willing hurts humans?

That's a cult and an entirely different slough, we are talking about religions.

True, not everyone will suddenly fall victim, but many will. And don't forget this was one of the reasons religions grow bigger during the course of history, some of them was banned because of the presence of a different one or a different ideology. It took time for them to slowly take over and at some points with the forcefulness of swift naked blades, for example Scandinavians and Persians.

A religion is merely a cult that has achieved legitimacy through government recognition.
