Religion is nothing but a set of ideas people chose to hold. It is not an "indelible trait." Disliking it, even hating it is NOT racist—religion is a choice, not a "race." It is no different that membership in a political party. If you cannot hate or dislike a religion freely, then you cannot hate or dislike a political movement. It needs to be able to stand up as any other idea does. If it is so weak that it cannot survive scrutiny (or name-calling), then it's clearly not the strongest idea set.
