Religion inherently has its restrictions and they vary from person to person even within the same faith.

As a Christian, I don't go to church on Sundays. I don't feel that I need to validate my faith by revisiting the same narratives over and over again. (And, selfishly, I don't like getting up on Sunday morning.) But I have enough respect for God to not play a video game which casts a fictionalized version of Him as the villain. Another Christian, who has the dedication to get up and go to church on Sunday, and who loves and respects God as much as I do, can beat a Persona game on Saturday and joke the next morning, "Who am I even going to church to worship? I killed God last night."

Religion is like having food restrictions. It's like being the person who has an allergy to peanuts. Or the individual who engages in a vegan diet. It can completely redefine who you are. But for the most part, you really only see minor differences from one person to another.
