It's not just about the assholes. It's about arbitrary hobbies interfering with sekular policy. All influence of religion on society is toxic. Might as well grant the flat earth society and Scientology protection from ridicule.
Tolerance of such nonsense is what creates assholes in the first place. And not only do we legitimize stupidity but go even further and put it under special protection of the law. Shit like this breeds assholes and extremists because those assholes feel absolutely legitimized. Why would any extremist even think twice about what he's doing if every single state on this planet says that religion is something to protect and cherish as if it's the greatest thing on earth.
Those morons wouldn't even begin to be radicalized if at the first mention of their god they get a slap in the face and a good old laugh like all other hallucinations.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
