BoardGameGeek has fired advertising manager Chad Krizan after almost 20 years with the company, after he cited his personal experiences of demonic possession as grounds for rejecting an ad campaign.
Krizan told Possess Me, Satan publisher Falling Whale Games that he couldn’t “in good conscience” approve ads for its Gamefound campaign as “the thought of displaying this subject matter makes me sick to my stomach”, according to an email exchange shared online by the publisher.
In the emails, Krizan says he has been “sitting on this one and praying about what to do in this instance”, adding that “as a follower of Jesus, I routinely help people suffering from demonic oppression, and more occasionally, possession, and it’s absolutely devastating the damage he does to peoples’ lives”.
That is not how religious discrimination protection works, even in the US.
You’re free to practice your religion, you’re not free to let your religion interfere with your duties.

That is utter, utter toss.
There are many many examples of this exact thing happening, from both sides.
i don’t know… just off of the top of my head:
The literal dozens of recent-times incidences of pastors, priest and religious leaders being sued and jailed for (personally, not a part of their order) refusing to marry people. successes on both sides, but more importantly to the point interference with duties
Conscientious objection interfering with military duties, (again no judgement here, just pointing out the interference)
A large proportion of nations with a dominant religion used to all but shut down for things like the sabbath and many still do for that and other religious observances.
If you genuinely don’t think religion causes interference in life (for good or ill), everything else you say is suspect.
This whole case is about a person’s religious beliefs interfering with their duties?
I don’t understand your example, who tests what and why?
