The ST constantly does these stunts that have no actual legal ramifications because "religious exemption" does not mean what the average ST supporter thinks it does. Religious exemptions aren't just assumed out of the first amendment. We don't let Muslims marry multiple wives or mutilate female genitals. We don't let new agers get high on every drug under the sun. Religious exemptions actually exist in law. For example, the Volstead Act had a exemption for wine used for religious purposes. If someone believes that defamation laws are against their religion they aren't exempt from being sued for defamation. Even broad religious exemptions require someone to have a truly held belief in something. Contrary to what redditors think, selfishness and narcissism (the tenants of ST) do not qualify as truly held religious beliefs under US law. Redditors are morons that don't understand US law. ST is literally a scam used to extract dumb r/Atheism redditors money. They are a 501(c)3 they legally can not lobby. The most they can do is go to state court and try to claim that their non-existent religion entitles "believers" to be excluded from civil lawsuits, which the court will ignore and discard. Again, ST has been doing this shit for YEARS. Every time the DA calls them retards and nothing happens.
Like really, these people actually believe that religious freedom in the US would allow me to declare that Josh Moon is my lord and savior and if the state doesn't erect a monument to Josh Moon next to the nativity scene they are violating muh freedoms.
