How are they going to stop you? You go through passport control, they are not looking there, then you collect your bags. They have stopped the last x ray check now apparently so thats it...you walk out. You think they are going to stop someone in dish dash carrying a duty free bag from Paris? I doubt it, so why should they stop you...

Is saying that you are an Atheist on your residency application an option? You can then obtain a licence.

Yeah, they have gotten rid of the compulsary customs scanners. The compulsary scan point is before the duty free shops.
