If I want to be a practicing Jew, I don't need to be of a certain age, I don't need a clean praying record, I don't need to carry religion insurance, and there aren't law enforcement personnel whose job is to make sure I am following the laws of Judaism.

Try opening a house of worship, be it Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Sikh, Hindu...it matters not. You still need permission, and if you practice too much free speech inside said house of worship, you lose the various tax exemptions and licensures which make the existence of your Temple, Church, Mosque, etc. possible in our current legal framework.
