Cmv: there should be no "freedom of religion" because religion is a bad idea to begin with:
There should be no "freedom of religion" because religion is a false concept- it's like having the freedom to use whatever perpetual motion machine you prefer. Because those are not real, guaranteeing that right is useless and wasteful.

Worse, it subtly legitimizes it. If the constitution really made a point of letting people choose their own perpetual motion machines, many more people would take that idea seriously than otherwise would, to the point where it would seem patriotic to have a preference.

Freedom of religion is not a right anyone should be proud to have. It should be forgotten and ignored, like a clunky relic.

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;Atheism is the absence of religion, not a form of religion, so as a non-believer I need no religious liberties.
