      Thinking a lot about the definition of "religion" in the first amendment. 2A antagonists spend a lot of time talking about how technological advances have made the original language ill-suited to modern contexts. I am thinking this is a more apt critique of 1A.

      I'm not familiar with case or statutory law about what actually constitutes a religion. The best I can do offhand is the gay wedding bakery, which has to do with the extent of protections for a clear religious belief rather than what makes a belief religious, legally speaking.

      I do recall a case in Minnesota in the late 90s (?) regarding some sort of conflict between an environmental group and an industrial interest. In some way, the industry's case hinged on their claim that the environmentalist opposition was /religious/; specifically of Deep Ecology

      I don't recall how that case specifically resolved, but I wonder if it might be some sort of harbinger for what fideistic conflict looks like in a United States where most groups bound by common belief are not religious in the traditional sense of common views of God.

      Many, like (say) @JohnHMcWhorter, have identified "wokism" as a religion. Per some tweets by @pegobry a few years ago, I think that fits in the sense of fideism, and increasingly perhaps even in the richer sense of religionhttps://twitter.com/eigenrobot/status/1269534491757797376?s=19 …

      Replying to @eigenrobot @JohnHMcWhorter @pegobry

      Do you think it's more socially advantageous for it to become a formal religion? For example, The Satanic Temple is essentially an activist group, but is legally considered a formal religion - which I guess benefits their goals.

      That is the issue. Advantageous, and for whom?
