Except your definition of pushing "ones religious beliefs down others throat and demanding them to just sit still" means to just mention them in public. If it were up to you all religious people would be locked away in some dungeon somewhere so you wouldn't sully your eyes by having to see them.

That is not ethical to my thinking.
