      Today, the government has banned all organized religion in order to curtail the fomenting of radical ideas in the isolation of cults throughout the country.

      Feel free to calmly and scientifically, of your own free will, help us usher in a new era of rationlism and skeptical inquiry.

      To this end, all entities receiving government funds will be reviewed for spiritual and dogmatic thinking. School library indexes will be purged of media containing unscientific themes which could lead to disorders of thought, titles include Harry Potter and The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

      Additionally, the department of rational authority has banned the following archetypes of delusion:

      Churches

      Ashrams

      Corporate wellness retreats

      Reiki practices

      Yoga studios

      And any organization that uses the following words: Self care, hollistic, and manifesting.

        It’s exactly what it sounds like.

        No official places of worship.

        If you want to have a connection with god then read your book and have your connection at home.

        You don’t need a community to worship, and they shouldn’t be allowed to form religious communities that then fuck with our societies.

          So we throw out freedom of assembly, freedom of association, freedom of speech and freedom of religion? Easy!

            Is freedom of religion truly discarded with their solution though? Anyways this is unenforceable on a political level unless you want to change the freedom of speech.
