Actually “fuck off” to the above statement as well in many cases. “I’m a gynecologist. My religion says I can’t do an abortion.” Fuck off. Where I live (Croatia) pharmacies can refuse to sell you contraceptive pills if the person on the counter says it disagrees with their religion. Fuck off.
People’s values are never a purely private matter.

I think because most religious tenets are more restrictive rather than permissive, it’s easy to say “everyone should have the freedom to practice their own religion.”, but the part that gets left out is “including no religion at all.” and that is an important distinction.
Whenever I meet these types of psycho Christian nationalists who think it’s A-OK to impose their own regressive views on others by rewriting the law to be a reflection of their holy text, I just fire back with an even more regressive, barbaric interpretation of a religious commandment.
“I worship Ba’al Hamon, and my religion says I must sacrifice an infant child to gain his favor. I will lobby my congressmen to change the law to add an exception to infanticide when performing a ritualistic blood offering. Oh, what’s that? You don’t like that? Gee, and you were so gung-ho about forcing people to abide by your religious demands a second ago. I thought we were cool with forcing our beliefs on other people?”
If your religion can’t coexist with nonbelievers without forcibly bending them to your rules, it’s a shit religion.
