The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) ruled in 2021 that Pastafarianism is not a religion or belief protected by Article 9 of the European Convention of Human Rights. This would also seem to apply to Sauron worship.
Sauron was trying to usher in a new age of industrialisation and egalitarianism by uniting and aiding the downtrodden and disenfranchised orcs until some racist hippies and their aristocratic drug addict friends decided they didn't like it. LOTR is class warfare.
