That would depend upon which religion you are talking about when exercising religious freedom.

Because of religious freedom, any Joe Smoe can declare a religion, like Joe Smoe's House of Worship / The Church of the Ugly Ducking, and get tax free income and convince lots of old ladies that God commanded him to raise money for all of the ugly ducklings in order to help their low self-esteem, but in reality, spend the money in Vegas gambling and on whores.
The only good thing is, all the ugly ducklings grow into beautiful swans, but Joe does not want us to know that, so he hides the truth.
Bless you all.

in America, it goes both ways...durning my time here in America i have observed that it is obvious this is mostly a Christian nation...and while they are very judging...not all but most. if you not Christian, you are a joke, you don't belong, your an outcast as far as they are concerned. so i ask this same Q. i have many Christian friends that are open minded so i know the difference between a good Christian and a hypocrite...see it is the hypocrites who always make jokes and stabs at me because i believe in Islam...terrorists have turned Islam into everything it isn't, i don't think we ever have been hated so much...thanks to them...but it is funny how we were getting along {Christians and Islam} until the terrorists decided that they were going to run the show...ok here is my point...the hypocrites to Christianity find ways to bring my people down, judging us, bashing us, i have never heard such hateful things come from people who claim they love God. they can accually kill someone's self-esteem...so they don't even think that they are behaving like terrorists in a sense...they kill self-esteem, while terrorist kill lives...if you think about it a soul is the only difference. because these hypocrites can make someone feel ugly and an outcast, just down, that is no way to live...terrorists hypocrites to Islam, kill people so that they don't live...it all ways out...the Christian hypocrites need to take some lessons from good Christians. the hypocrites try to find everything wrong with us, yet are the very first to forget to view themself...very very seldomly do i hear someone on here that believes in Islam, target another for what they believe, and when i do it is because someone ticked them off...but all the time this forum is full of other religion bashing us...i am not making excuses for my brother or sister, good God fearing Muslims we are taught tolerance, and tolerance is what we need to show most of all inspite of terrorists. but another point is that other religions point their fingers at ALL of us in Islam, but Islam isn't the only religion with hypocrites, Islam isn't the only religion who has killed in the name of their god, and it isn't Islam doing all this chaos...terrorists is causing this chaos, while another side of Islam wants true peace and restored balance. but hypocrites can't see that...they are too busy pointing their fingers at us...i see terrorists in Islam making a mess, i don't see Islam returning the favor for them. i don't see Islam saying you, you and you are wrong for what you believe...i see terrorists killing you, you and you-for what you believe...there is not hardly any religious freedom and what is left of it, i hope it grows. i am happy to know good Christians who show how this country should behave, they show tolerance, respect and i in return have respect for them and what they believe, and that goes for any religion. Islam is about our intentions, and i will not let a terrorist decided my Islam for me.
