Stupid. The machine is a reader. It can't the idiot's hand with anything.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

The company needs to move its business to NC. We are a right to work state which means that employers can fire their workers for just about any reason.

Hey, over here!! I'm afraid of the devil! I haven't taken a dump indoors in 15 years, because I sincerely believe that Satan lives in toilets.

I would like $150 000 EACH from:

-Every toilet manufacturer in the world (they're all in league with Satan).

-All companies and corporations whose employees install toilets.

-Public health boards from every city in which I've ever lived who make the demonic claim that Satan-infested toilets are somehow 'sanitary'.

-Cops who've nicked my for expelling my holy excrement in public places.

Cash, please. Low denomination, non-sequential bills.

From Wikipedia:

'Beverley Goodway (13 October 1943 – 4 November 2012) was an English photographer known for his glamour shots which were published on Page 3 of The Sun newspaper in the United Kingdom.'

So, there's that.

Hint - The employer could claim the employee is possessed by Satan and therefore the former can't pay him a compensation because pacts with the devil are forbidden.

And this is how you combat this ridiculous tripe. If I am an employer (who can now have closely held religious beliefs---thanks Hobby Lobby) and something like this turned up, I would simply claim something to this effect.

To play devil's advocate, here, the company did make accomodations on this same policy to other employees based on reasonable exceptions. Prudence is prudence, let the guy punch in the old way if he's given 30 years to the company and is about to retire. Even if he is a batshit nutter. Reasonable accomodation and all. In hindsight you saved yourself $150,000.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
