Freedom of religion until we don’t like it.
Why should there be freedom of religion any more? What does religion do?
It’s a part of culture. You can’t dictate to a people how their culture should be. And in case of a minority group like muslims in Norway it’s a form of oppression. Because you know who will be targeted first if freedom of religion falls.
Culture is important, but these things can be taught as history too
What things? How do you think people live their religion that it can all just be discarded and taught in a sterile manner?
explain how you are going to enforce a ban on religion

Why should a state be allowed to dictate what people believe?
Because freedom of religion is pretty much just a special case of freedom of thought and conscience? Unless you want the state to use its monopoly on violence to punish people for wrongthink, freedom of religion is here to stay.
This is an argument that will lead to you being forced into being a christian.
What do you have in mind? Maybe we should start rounding up people for having the wrong belief
