OK, but be honest about it, your problem is the religion itself.

I have many audio recordings of them not just saying "OK" is the problem

Trust me, I think they did everything they could to be as obnoxious as possible. Do audio record though

CBP is relentless in its mission to safeguard the nation’s borders and the privacy of all citizens. CBP’s biometric facial comparison technology is hosted within a secure cloud-based environment and does not store biographic data for any travelers. CBP retains U.S. citizen photos for no more than 12 hours after identity verification and only for continuity of operations purposes.

Is what they claim. What you saw may have been about non-citizens

They store the data from everytime you enter and exit the country. For citizens they claim to delete that data after a couple days- but I would not be too confident in that. So if you are a citizen ALWAYS opt out of biometric entry and exit. I've multiple times been told it is not an option, then being forced to wait 10 minutes- harassed about why I want to opt out, then it suddenly becomes an option. This is despite CBPs policy that you cannot be penalized for it. I have several audio recordings of this happening because I noticed how much of a pattern it was.

UK is now also doing the same

That's how religion works. It tends to inform people's morality

What the article is about

This I kinda don't get, in that this is probably the most vanilla thing you'd expect to hear from basically anyone of any religion about their spouse not following it.

Did you see what he said?

[–] aidan@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

Read the rules pls

Thats contrary to the basis of Islam and Christianity, which explicitly have always been about conversions.

Christians believe their God cares about and wants them to try to save everyone, they believe following the Christian God is the path to everlasting happiness, that's where the evangelism comes from- even when it takes a cruel form it is at least in theory a good intent(in practice of course often not).

Muslims believe their God wants all people to recognize and submit to the truth of himself, and that spreading this message is a duty.
