I totally agree with the orwellian society comment, I wouldn't want that. A thing that helps stop the madness would be what Pyyrho said, the law trumps all. No special catering to religions, if your religion says you have to kill people, you're religion wouldn't flourish here, SORRY!

My alternative would have been something like saying, "We are a secular country, you have freedom from religion here." I think a lot of people would migrate to that country, but it would be too difficult to keep it religion free. It probably would make it like a country like Sweden though, where secularism would be the majority. You wouldn't feel like you were doing something so wrong all time for not believing in myths.
t way.



Organized religion would be legal.  

Barely.
I reject your reality and substitute my own!
