IT is not permissible for an employer to discrimination based upon religion. So I think if you dont wish to pray or go to religious speeches and are penalized for it, then that might be actionable discrimination which you may wish to address with HR or the EEOC. FOr more information on discrimination claims and filing with the EEOC check out my employee rights blog www.takethisjobnshoveitblog.com or my website www.behrenlaw.com.
