You can't be this clueless. We're unlikely to legislate away something that people claim as their religious beliefs. Our supreme court recently ruled in favor of religious hegemony, remember? It isn't business for legislators, there isn't any business in it......for them. Regardless, as you've just mentioned.....forcing people to do something is difficult, and shouldn't come with expectation. So, rather than legislation...I prefer outreach and education.
Things like;
"Hey asshole, you're killing that kid for jesus"
