"I certainly wouldn't care if people were religious, if I didn't think it could harmfully impact my rights."

Exactly. There would be NO reason to get pissed at me because I lie on a rock and look at the clouds. We are very lucky in North America, aren't we?

Of course, in some countries they hack off your head in the middle of the night because you are of a different religion (and almost always a different culture or race). This is probably a part of your meaning in expressing concern about religion where it might "harmfully impact "my" (your) rights.

I agree with you entirely on this matter! If all religions would agree to be regulated as an "after-life" concern then we could all walk by churches and admire the architecture--as well as passing pleasantries with the people passing out--whether they were Muslim, Cheyenne, or Jew.
