Arnt we all just really saying 'I put up with it.. But yeah ... I'm not a huge fan... ? 🤔

Well yes. Just as you will tolerate the baby peacefully I will tolerate religion peacefully. If someone puts the baby on your lap or thrusts their religion in my face we might get a bit pissy

Still don't imply you've embraced it ...
You just put up with it..
Politicians and activists should pick a new word 👍
