Good. Co-workers shouldn't have to be held hostage to random bullshit "beliefs" without sufficient backing evidence. Imagine if he claimed a "legitimate belief" that God declared him "King," and therefore all must bow before him. Fuck off with that bullshit. Your private beliefs are exactly that: private. In a shared work environment, all must accommodate an agreed upon shared set of rules, or you are excluded from that environment. Period.

If he did, I bet he was just fine with taking other medicines for it. Heck, he probably got the vaccine, but thought he could cash in on the anti-vaxer bullshit.

unfortunately religious exemption is still a thing. the jury just decided in this case that he was bullshitting because he took a bunch of other drugs that were also against his beliefs.

Yeah, I read it. Pardon me if I believe his "beliefs" weren't believably beliefs.

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I'm not asking you to believe him. the point is, in the bigger picture, it's still possible for other religious people to claim discriminaiton.

Is that not subject to a "reasonable accommodation" limit, though? It's not like anyone could actually use my "King" example, and expect it to work just because they acted as if they genuinely believed it, right?
