Tell them its a sin to disregard and break the company policy on religion and politics and they usually shut up pretty fast.

I don't talk religion with people I care about. Everyone already knows my feeling on the topic.

I don't since it's not professional, and everyone else is of the same mind as me.

I strongly believe in God but still got uncomfortable when someone started preaching at work. If they ask that is one thing but if not keep it to yourself. The same goes for those demanding all religious items be removed because of their bigotry.

I had a kid tell the teacher the Supreme Court ruling meant I could not have a bible in my desk. This was in the 8th Grade! Ignorance and hate abound, even way back then.

Stupid, ignorant or evil
The result is always evil but the intent is not always evil. Not that it makes much difference in the long run.

We don't have such a policy in place.

I'm one of only 5 people at work who don't go to the same church, I'm not talking they are all Catholic, which they are, I'm talking they all attend church in the same building.

Statistically speaking 85% of my co-workers should be agnostic or atheistic.. Even higher since we're all white collar slobs.
