re: #11 Bob Levin
There might be a civil suit that could be interesting. After all, I don’t believe that private employers can require someone to convert to Martianhood as a requisite for employment. The damage that needs to be demonstrated in a civil suit can come from the family. I don’t know that this would have legs, but if someone were to take a little time, I believe they could write a reasonable brief.
How can a religious rite done in private and that damages no one, except being offensive which is not a crime, be a subject to any case? Any sane judge will throw it out with prejudice.
