An employee joins a religion that requires members to keep a chicken by their side all morning and then cut-off a chicken's head at noon and suck the blood.

If sued for discrimination, the court will likely rule that:
a. these religious beliefs are valid and so they must be allowed
b. the chicken act may be done, but only in a room set aside for that purpose c. this is an odd "religion," so Title VII does not apply
d. the employee should be required to go to a class on the humane treatment of animals e. none of the other choices
