No, but be prepared to attract attention and if they decide you’re doing it on purpose there might be disciplinary measures

Quote:This issue is a convenient passive aggressive flex for the faithful. They insist that they are being persecuted while demanding that they be exempt from or separate to rules and laws which they support strongly insomuch as they suppress some other person doing some other thing they think their god doesn't like. IMO, the utility of this issue to (weak or strong) theocrats lies exclusively in it's ability to generate a friendly reaction from outside allies that often does not, upon close inspection, match the ideological viewpoint of those well meaning actors. I, ofc, believe that these religions are filth and that they are manipulating our societies - taking advantage of and perverting our best impulses in an opportunistic bid to secure perpetual minority control. So, that colors my view, lol.
I just cannot disagree with any of this.
