    I am saying we should force people not to believe in magic skymen. I am saying that we should not allow the practice of religious activity. Such activity is harmful and has no place in our world. It’s hate speech and should be stopped.

      I’m not sure you’ll have too many people on that side. For one it’s definitely not hate speech, especially if you consider other religions. Someone meditating practicing some random eastern religion/spirituaity isn’t hurting anyone and isn’t trying to convert people. They aren’t spewing any form of hatred. I’m behind putting pressure on hate speech for sure, but to say all religious activity is hateful isn’t really accurate.

      People should have the personal freedom to practice their religion in “private,” but as the saying goes “the freedom to swing your fist around ends at my face.” (Something like that lol) so once your religion demands that I change and compels you to force me, that’s when the religion is dangerous and should be stopped.
