This is a government entity thats trying to crackdown against opposition. Nothing to do with religion.

It’s “the advisory board of religious affairs.” You think that group of people can’t be religious nuts?

Also, it’s 100% about religion because their entire excuse is that it runs contrary to religious law. I mean, to your credit, you’re kinda right because this does have nothing to truly do with religion and is about control. But they’re using religion to do it.

“Using a VPN goes against our religious beliefs?” Come the fuck on.

Read the article. The title is cluck bait. They never claimed using a vpn is against their religion.
