It is easy for those who conflate religion with government to interpret any criticism of government or policy as an 'attack' on their 'faith'.

Religion folks, is open to interpretation. And how YOU interpret the message you find in your religion says a lot about YOU.

Going to the extreme of inviting and welcoming people into your church in order to hear you condemn them or to know from your policy that you condemn them is not much better than bullying.

I make a fortune from criticizing the policy of the government, and then hand it over to the government in taxes to keep it going

We are told that religion says: 'God gave us brains' - and then they also quickly add: '-but God doesn't want us to use them'. Ridiculous.

If I want religion, I know where to look for it - and if for example I don't want it, then why should it be forced on me in media and public spaces?
