[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like all the atheist feds are trying to exploit this accommodation policy.  It is the fed version of owners of untrained dog abusing disability protections to take their dogs everywhere they are banned.

It would be a shame if sincerely religious people like the original poster end up losing the accommodation because non practicing atheists start abusing it.[/quote]

I am not sure why religion should get more of an accommodation compared to anything else. Its none of your business what religion they are, whether they are sincere, etc. [/quote]
Remember who you're dealing with, here.  From the OPM memo (https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/latest-memos/reasonable-accommodations-for-religious-purposes/):

[i]Since taking office, President Trump has made it a top priority to “ensur[e] that all executive departments and agencies (agencies) honor and enforce the Constitution’s guarantee of religious liberty” and “end[] any form of religious discrimination by the Federal Government.”1 Specifically, “[i]t shall be the policy of the executive branch to vigorously enforce the historic and robust protections for religious liberty enshrined in Federal law.”2 In addition, it is in the interest of the Federal government to recruit and retain highly-qualified employees of faith.

Liberty is my religion.
