After last year’s renovations, The Monastery was given a permit to operate as a religious facility. Justin Schmidt, Torres’ attorney, told the board that at the time he and Safety and Permits Director Jared Munster had agreed that they wouldn’t debate what constitutes a religion.
The initial discussions seemed to envision the site being used mainly for religious-related events such as weddings and associated receptions.
But Munster said the actual events — which included a multi-day vampire-themed party and other balls and galas — have gone far beyond what had been represented. And advertising that paints the site as perfect for corporate events and conferences of up to 1,500 people further showed a lack of religious leanings, he said.

Torah Torah Torres
Sidney should just go the full nine and have Late Capitalism declared a religion. It's where the world has been headed for quite a while now anyway. The trep who gets the early jump on the grift is automatically Pope or something.
