Also I'm a devout athiest so this discussion may not be the best for me to partake in. I don't really know what we should do with all of them.

Devout atheism is a religion.  The basic idea of that religion is the belief( Can't prove it ) that god doesn't excist.
I'm from the heavingly secularized Europe, probably some kind of semi atheist/Christian. Don't believe that God excist, nor that he doesn't. He might, but it's probably not important.

Anyway, in order to prevent this thing from going offtopic, is everyone oK with using the Universal declaration  of human rights as guidebook. ( Just for this thing though , not everywhere)

Not going to argue. Generally it is considered not a religion where I am from. I would not mind using it.

"Rattling stones is one thing, rattling bones is another. And we're counting our kwama before they hatch. Living flesh will win this war, I say we make a public attack and show the people that there is hope, and we are it." Uria taps her fingers on the table. "Or we could always make a very public assassination. Maybe one of those fat brassblood nobles that walks around with coins clinking in their pockets so loud it hurts your ears." Uria turns her gaze to the new argonian. "But I'm sure you have a plan, please don't allow me to step on your toes. Please speak, Nerevar."

"I could do that. I am from Morrowind, anyway. Land of the dead. Plus..." Uria summons a whispy daedric pauldron with a gesture and then makes it disappear again. "But I refuse to raise any thing that will last for meer moments. We need soldiers, not obstacles."

I meant when the religious junk all kicks off.

I find it hard to believe any blood sacrifice religions still exist. Still though don't allow any religions with harmful beliefs or books that have odd stories or stories that do not match up. I think we want Zen and tibbetan Buddhism and Hinduism (maybe even asceticism??) more than anything else here.

Remake! I haven't seen any of them.

Let's just follow the Universal declaration of Human rigths on this one.

As longs as it doesn't hurt anyone nor restricts them from doing what they like, nor it is a danger to the colony permit it. Don't say it as that though.

FIrst ask the man to tell you about his religion, because you're interested, then check if it meets the parameters. If yes permit. If no, don't deny him, but ask him why that is part of his religion

Bingo. If it hurts anyone, shut it down. If the kids aren't learning science, shut it down. Simple as pie.
