Membership Required

Applicants are denied civil privileges: The State mandates that the applicant must be a member of a religious group with a leader that can attest to the applicant's personal religious opinion as well as to similar convictions held by the religious order/sect.

Incongruous Testimonies

Applicants are denied civil privileges because their personal religious opinions may not conform to that of other members of a denomination. Due to association, they are held to an establishment of religion that may or may not support a popular and faith-based conviction.

Entrapment

In order to disqualify applicants, a typical question posed to the leader of an applicant's religious group is:

Have any members of your organization ever applied for, or currently use, Social Security numbers?

An affirmative answer signifies that other members of the religious group do not have the same deeply held convictions as the applicant. Consequently, the applicant is disqualified due to a lack of common opinion, and his civil rights are denied.
