Religion isn't the words. It's about doing in action.

I am tired of people bashing religion for its own sake; for they forget religion is not the rule of law, but the spirit of the law. It is not as much the religion as it is the principles behind it -- which is essentially acting civilized and treating others nice, which in turn has them acting nice too. Or so the theory goes...

Trouble is, some religions ARE replete with verses (and people) who are anything but "nice". In ways the ones I knew are good family men and so on, but I don't take kindly to death threats because I don't believe as they do. Jesus certainly wouldn't approve of that.

And if it takes "profiling" to keep decent people from those that want to commit mass murder, that's fine by me. Sometimes God needs His creation to do the actual work of keeping one's fellow man in line, to keep them from committing mass murder. If for no other reason, a football team is praying God will let them win.

People should be allowed break times and allowed to be people, because God made us as people and not robotic machines, but maybe those who hire can mix people of various religions so when a gaggle goes off to pray, the rest can keep things going. And vice-versa.

You can probably take random guesses as to which religion(s) I am referring to. But it oughtn't be necessary. Just be nice and respectful of others, as so others should be to you. It's when the crackpots and narcissists go out of their way to bestow their pompous mis-perceptions, especially via violence, that things get out of control.
