How "compelling" is it if weed is already legal for medical and recreational use in other parts of the country? These laws put the burden on government, not individuals. Peyote is illegal as well, and yet laws like this allow for their use for religious reasons.
How can judges determine the sincerity of religious conviction?
Like I said, some sort of history or tradition which peyote has. It's not impossible, but just saying, "Hey I have a church" isn't going to be enough.
Compelling government interest is it's illegal in the state.
