Religious vs disability accommodations

[robvalue]

Razz: good call, my last posts were OTT. Apologies.

You're right, religious belief isn't a choice (although pretending to hold religious belief is) and so to say it's self inflicted is rather harsh on my part. I got a bit carried away there.

If religious beliefs are to be equated with mental illness symptoms, that implies that religious teaching is psychologically damaging. Which I think it is, but making this legal kind of incriminates religion.

Sure, some of my examples weren't very good. Accomodating these religious things should depend on people being up front about it, I don't think it's right to announce stuff once you've got the job and expect everything to shift around you. The problem there is you can just invent a new religion once you've got a job. Then, can they fire you if your new religion requires unreasonable accommodation? I suppose so.
