Could you mean Libertarianism?

Libertarianism is a political philosophy maintaining that every person is the absolute owner of his or her own life and should be free to do whatever she or he wishes with his person or property, as long as she or he respects the liberty of others.

They believe this requires a limited government that engages in a minimum amount of initiatory force such as levying taxes to provide some public goods such as defense, law, and roads, as well as some minimal regulation.

Libertarians generally view constraints imposed by the state on persons or their property (if applicable), beyond the need to penalize infringement of one's rights by another, as a violation of liberty. Anarchist libertarians favor no governmental constraints at all, based on the assumption that rulers and laws are unnecessary because in the absence of government individuals will naturally form self-governing social bonds and rules. In contrast, minarchist libertarians consider government necessary for the sole purpose of protecting the rights of the people. This includes protecting people and their property from the criminal acts of others, as well as providing for national defense.

The religions wanted to be free from government influence. Now the religions want to restrict the rest of us from practicing other or no religions.
