... that the theories of war on religion are valid, doesn't seem productive.

I don't see any way to disabuse them of it anyway. I think I understand why the entrenched are entrenched and I'm all but certain that there is no argument with the potential to make a difference. So I don't know that there's a downside.

Every battle about a conservative religious imposition has been about whether an existing one will be allowed to stay in place, or whether it will be removed.

Not before I was born.

I understand that the feasible actions are at the margins. I'm not thinking about adding a "major new restriction," just reversing the favorable recent movement at the margins. I want a stop-loss at words, further movement preferably. Would like to gain, not lose momentum.

You continue to frame it as less of a problem like that somehow makes it not a problem. I don't care that it's less of a problem. It's still a problem.
