16. Did you notice how all the situations/items mentioned as "okay" were all

christian... or at least, monotheistic? I think there was one throwaway towards Judaism. But I'd lay odds me hanging a protective Pentacle on the office wall would NOT be judged as "correct"... and I'd be told to stop trying to sell paganism. This is all going to come back and bite them in the ass some day in the future... hopefully, the near future. I think the masses are getting tired of people using the religion excuse to not do whatever their job says they should do. Scapegoating religion only goes so far before the majority starts rejecting the religion completely, IMO. Especially when you've got a holy roller coworker intent on "saving your soul" and getting you to their church some Saturday or Sunday morning. Or, worse, a supervisor who feels everyone *must* start off the work day with groups prayer. Talk about a threatening work environment! Wars have been fought over which religion was the "one, true, only way" and I can see workplace violence centered around religion happening as people just flat out reject it all. If one could say we're in the early stages of the new Dark Ages, perhaps critical thinking (and believer restraints) might be the New Enlightenment.
