Haha of course not, because it's the Supreme Court picking which religions to sanction and not sanction and fuck you the Supreme Court can do whatever it wants.

Well there's probably a lot more to it but I don't have a TERRIBLY lengthy one, but the short version is that he's curmudgeonly and fed up with everyone's BS and SUPER annoyed at how 10 and 11 spend all their time smooching and that last bit sums several of my emotions on the subject too.

Jehova's Witnesses were specifically called out in the Hobby Lobby case as the sort of religious belief that it *totally wouldn't* apply to ever.

The Supreme Court deciding which religions deserve that level of protection and which ones don't sound exactly like the sort of consistent reading of the First Amendment we all want.

The fact that *even filling out a form putting your objection to birth control on record* was ruled by SCOTUS to be a "substantial burden", would love to see someone demand the same standard for CO status on the grounds it's basically a war "permission slip".

Discussing this on twitter, but Jack Miles's "God: A Biography" refers heavily one school of interpretation that posits that the angel actually was Esau, and Jacob couldn't really see his features but figured it out while they were fighting enough to coyly refer to it during their face-to-face reunion later. Which is just sort of an incredibly SIBLING HIJINX way to end the story, and also totally makes all these paintings of hugging it out and holding hands pretty much exactly perfect and so this will forever be my biblical headcanon.

Not going to lie, I didn't actually manage to read the article because I was too busy marveling at the utter perfection of the Zelda screenshot accompanying it.
