You just can't ban a popular religion. Imagine if IRL a country passes a law that closed down every single church. Religious people would go ape sh*t, revolting and protesting until the law was changed. Not strictly true. Look at the former USSR as a real life example.

USSR didn't ban religion, it simply tabooed it in the forms of Government but not in general.

But, there's a difference between that and forcing people to only worship in private, the Nords who are especially fond of him are almost being taunted with that, not being able to express their in culture.
