Reply #9: How do you define "trashing a religion"?

[TechBear_Seattle]

What if someone genuinely believes that only whites are favored by God and that other races are the spawn of Satan, would calling them to task on their racism be wrong? Suppose they believe that it is their moral obligation to "preserve society" and "protect the children" by stripping established civil and human rights away from certain groups? Or that their Holy Scripture calls them to wage war against any and all who oppose their theocracy?

Would pointing out the science that contradicts a religious doctrine that the earth is flat and only 6000 years old count as "trashing" that person's religion? What if their religion is founded on provable falsehoods, like, say, the claims that the Native Americans are the descendants of Jews, once spoke "Reformed Hebrew" and once had metallurgy and vast civic centers made of quarried stone?

There are many Talibangelicals who say that opposition to in-your-face evangelism is "trashing" their religion; is it? What about not letting them promote their theology from the Legislature floor and Capitol Building rotundas? If they are disallowed the use of public schools to brainwash children, is their religion being trashed? They claim it is.

Please, clarify your meaning.
