Depends upon the religion and how strongly they adhere to it and/or expect others to do so. Living in the United States I sort of view those following a religion as a threat. Their interpretation of Freedom of Religion is a freedom to follow any Christian style of worship you want. And Jewish worship will get a pass. They do not recognize that freedom of religion includes the option to be free FROM religion and try constantly to erect idols of their faith in public spaces and pass harmful laws based on the dictations of their holy book's flawed morality.

I do not view these people as necessarily evil, just misguided in their intent to be good people. But sadly, much harm can be caused with good intentions.
