1. Zoroastrian

[TexasProgresive]

11. Chances are if you are Zoroastrian you will be barred

since Iranis are froze out completely. My wife's cousin's husband is a Zoroastrian. They have lived in California for years. I don't think they should leave the country even the cousin who is Methodist, they might not be allowed bake in. What an evil 'Rump voters have unleashed upon the nation and the world.

3. The Church of Elvis

This was actually a real thing in Portland, Oregon until it closed 4 years ago. It was a museum exhibit, not a real church, though its founder was an ordained minister who performed both legal and novelty (non-binding) weddings onsite.

[HAB911]

18. That is what I would have to say

[haele]

23. No, the Oafkeeper types think Atheist means Disciple of the Devil.

You're worse than a Mooselamb or even some other Pagan type to those people - because you don't believe and can't be converted to the right way of worshipping.
So they certainly wouldn't want you in their country, and since they can't just take you out and shoot you as an apostate yet, they will happily send you back back to that Godless Europe or wherever else the people who look like you live.

and, if asked, my answer (in my best retired-teacher voice) will be, "Son, that little blue folder you're holding says I'm an American Citizen. So, unless you have a compelling legal reason to ask, it's actually none of your business."

(and I'm old- and grey-enough to get away to get away with calling the Border Agent "son&quot

45. I am a member of Builders of the Adytum. It is absolutely NOT a religion. The only reason

it is listed as a 'religion' is so that it may send out its curriculum as a tax-exempt learning institution.
