This was so helpful, not only for my business class. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and we have faced a lot of persecution to this day by not only atheists but those in other religions as well. Simply going on social media, I have been insulted and ridiculed for my belief, and it hurts. Knowing that as I join the workforce, I will have some protection against these harmful people gives me great comfort. So, thank you for helping me out.

What happens when a coworker won’t STFU about religion, and you try to ignore it and not respond, but they won’t stop saying god this, sin that? I had one manager who found out I was Catholic and went on and on about how horrible Catholics are because we worship false gods (symbols of the cross I guess?) I tried to ignore it, but it really made working with her uncomfortable. I didn’t know at the time that this was illegal on her part. But is that something I could have complained about to a government agency? Another coworker just kept talking about god all the time. That I wasn’t sure if it was legal, but it made me very uncomfortable

I submitted my Religious exemption in regards to the vaccine and testing about 2 weeks ago to HR. I have not received a response to my approval. It seems very odd to be taking this long making me feel Discriminated. Any suggestions. Thank you in advance.
