Religion is not a crutch, a security blanket, a thumb to suck nor a skirt to hold (a nod to Asimov). It is the basis of all our morals, all that is good, all that is just, all that lifts mankind to greater and better morality. The fact that most of its adherents are skum sucking dip sticks is irrelevant, immaterial and beside the point.
The fact that its leaders are power hungry, misogynistic dipsticks, is immaterial. The fact that the movement wants to impose their world view on everyone else in the world is irrelevant. They must be respected.
