I believe in free speech but I'm more concerned about freedom from religion than freedom of religion.
Democratic secular society is on a sharp decline all over the world.
Although you don't like religion, it's one of the dominos that fall in the line of authoritarian control. When it falls, other dominos fall with it.
Religion has been used for millennia as a mechanism for authoritarian control.
Like I said, I support free thought and speech. Be religious if you must buy into a cult of mass delusion. But true freedom means freedom from religious law in a secular and democratic society.
