Hey now, sophistry is an art form.

And this, this is a piece of art.

Sadly, it leaves open the tactic of saying:

'If there is no difference between status and use, then every misuse defines the status. So if there is even the slightest bit of proof that religious people in any way break more laws that secular people, then we should ban that religion completely. Since there are too many laws to follow them all, every religion must be guilty of something, ergo every religion should be banned.'
