Just think of some of the activities that would have to be allowed under "religious freedom" if you take that concept to its logical end.
Animal sacrifice, genital mutilation, child marriage, polygamy,polyandry, bloodletting, et al. There are a whole host of religious activities coming from various beliefs and sects. And who defines what is a valid religion.
We face a country in chaos. We can see how religious anarchy has worked in the Middle East, Africa and other parts of the world.

In their mind ANYTHING they have to do that is publicly legal that they do not agree with is "persecuting" them and "interfering" with their conscience. Moslems do not believe in allowing any human or animal to appear in pictures or represented. That is why there is only geometric figures in their art an architecture. Would that mean ending cameras.
