I'd love to see our resident, super-tolerant and safe space practicing atheists walk up to a mosque and start disparaging Islam or Mohammed, or try to pull that stuff at a Diwali gathering.
Why would we do that? If they leave us alone, I don't care. They have freedom of religion, and I respect that. Even if I have zero respect for the religion, I have respect for a person to have that belief. 1poorlady is theist. I have zero respect for her beliefs, but I respect her right to have those beliefs. I never try to make her not believe, or not attend some function.
When queried I will point out factual errors, logical inconsistencies, etc. But I don't camp out at Baptist churches, or mosques, or Jewish temples, and heckle people as they come and go. Again, why would I do that? It would be stupid and a waste of time (and rather boorish).
