Sure, you can be against it for authoritarian reasons as well. Disturbing.

I don't really see how that's related. Even if it were motivated by racism, that'd be equally authoritarian to any other motive, since authoritarianism is about ceding rights from individuals to the government and it doesn't matter what the motivation for that is.

Fair enough: regardless of whether racism is involved or not, there is an authoritarian bent to this law. In my opinion.

Religion has been used time and time again to justify committing atrocities and still used as such today.

There is a legitimate debate to be had about the religion's place in a society.
