    It would solve a lot of problems though.

    How about this, freedom to practice your religion, but only in private places. Like a “Don’t Say Doctrine” law

      It’s really tempting to agree to ban public displays and mention of homosexuality if we can also do so for all religion. It’s a one step backwards, two miles forward situation…

      I mean that’s what France was going for when they banned burqas, the idea was that people are free to express their religion privately but not in public. I personally think if you’re going to take people’s rights to wear a certain piece of fabric in a certain way away like that, the ends definitely don’t justify the means.
