The feet of religion wtf o.O
10 years ago
I have come to eat your soul.
Okay now this happened at work, over a week ago, and yea management gave me a slap on the wrist over it. Still this is the most what the fuck just happened moment in my life.
Okay a guy came in barefoot, meaning no sandles, no shoes, nada... only piercings on his feet. He had a shirt on that basically said fuck religion, more piercings, tattoos and well didn't look overall like a model guy. Not that it matters to me still....
Now we have roller grills there so you think the health department thing about needing shoes around exposed food that is cooking would apply here. Which is what I mentioned to him, just doing my job there is all. no big deal or anything like that.
Next thing I know is that he goes off on me and makes a scene about religious rights and then a few more minutes in to it how he has a disability as well. So apparently i am discriminating against his religion and the disabled.... just for telling him he needs to wear shoes here.
Hey makes a royal scene about it, and even pulls out paperwork he claims is from health officials and such to support him. The documents look real but there is no state or city seal on them, which would be normal for such documents.
I do eventually tell him I will call the cops only cause he is making a scene over it, and I did try to assure him that religion has nothing to do with it. Now on a side note i been researching some things and I found a website form something called Ahcuah.
Apparently Ahcuah is one of these new age religions that is centered around barefeet. Apparently founded in 1994 in Columbus Ohio. with nothing else going for it. The person on who runs the website even noted court case after court case where he attempted to legalize barefeet being allowed in numerous places only to fail each and every time.
Looking at the documents he released on those cases, the court noted how a lifestyle choice is not a religion and will never be seen as such. That is something I can understand personally. As such it maes me wonder if this is just a whack job thing in the end. Mind you i have nothing against folks who want to go around barefoot, but still... there is such a thing as going nuts over it.

Is this a tax-exempt organization? If not, guess what, it's not a religion. Just another way for stupid, crazy Ohians to piss off the rest of the country. I HATE this state. =P
...Only, you know. More Businessy.
