re: #268 LudwigVanQuixote

The serious legal and philosophical question though is “what constitutes a religion?” I do not claim to have a quick or easy answer, and I am not saying that we should make them illegal. I am saying that I can see why the German government did so, and despite my strong Constitutional convictions, I have a hard time blaming the Germans.

I know how you feel - it’s tempting, but I think it’s best to stay with the constitution. Fraudulent practices and individuals should be stopped and prosecuted as per the law. There will always be those who can claim that for them, it’s just a religion - a ban wouldn’t fly.
