Why should religion have a special standing deserving of 'tolerance?' - religions are just a collection of ideas like any other opinion. If someone believes that the earth is flat or that homosexuality is a sin, do we have to be tolerant of their 'faith?' If Someone genuinely believes that we are ruled by an alien race of lizards wearing human skins (David Icke) do we have to respect their ideas?
I would fight for their right to freedom of thought and speech to have and express their ideas, but that doesn't mean I have to respect and accept them because, for them, they are articles of faith.
