I always thought I was a type of humanist but I might also be a Dudeist

A quotation from The Bible

Give a welcome to anyone whose faith is not strong, but do not get into arguments about doubtful points. One person may have faith enough to eat any kind of food; another, less strong, will eat only vegetables. Those who feel free to eat freely are not to condemn those who are unwilling to eat freely; nor must the person who does not eat freely pass judgement on the one who does — because God has welcomed him. And who are you, to sit in judgement over somebody else’s servant? Whether he deserves to be upheld or to fall is for his own master to decide.

[Τὸν δὲ ἀσθενοῦντα τῇ πίστει προσλαμβάνεσθε, μὴ εἰς διακρίσεις διαλογισμῶν. ὃς μὲν πιστεύει φαγεῖν πάντα, ὁ δὲ ἀσθενῶν λάχανα ἐσθίει. ὁ ἐσθίων τὸν μὴ ἐσθίοντα μὴ ἐξουθενείτω, ὁ δὲ μὴ ἐσθίων τὸν ἐσθίοντα μὴ κρινέτω, ὁ θεὸς γὰρ αὐτὸν προσελάβετο. σὺ τίς εἶ ὁ κρίνων ἀλλότριον οἰκέτην; τῷ ἰδίῳ κυρίῳ στήκει ἢ πίπτει.]

The Bible (The New Testament) (AD 1st - 2nd C) Christian sacred scripture
Romans 14: 1-4 [NJB (1985)]

If the census is "mandatory" where you are, demand the paper form. Then you can refuse to answer / do other nonsense for any question you don't like. I quit out of the online version the moment it validate-shamed me and demanded I comply with its restrictions 😉

I did this last time, drawing a line through every question that I thought exceeded the original scope of the census here (which is pretty much all but one of them). I got a couple of semi-nasty phone calls from a supervisor of some sort trying to get me to answer the questions, but I stuck to my guns.

It's theoretically possible to get fined here for refusal to complete the census, but nothing happened to me. I'm guessing it's similar in most western nations.

A quotation from Judith Martin

Should you happen to notice that another person is extremely tall or overweight, eats too much or declines convivial drinks, has red hair or goes about in a wheelchair, ought to get married or ought not to be pregnant — see if you can refrain from bringing these astonishing observations to that person’s attention.

Judith Martin (b. 1938) American author, journalist, etiquette expert [a.k.a. Miss Manners]
“Miss Manners,” syndicated column (1986-01-19)
