People of all religions, regardless of what religion, get upset and emotional, be angry, and feel dispespected when anyone else outside their tent make any criticisms, even if it is extremely constructive and would be very beneficial if listened and tried to understand the underlying mesage in the criticism. It is true that every individual has the right to do whatever s/he likes under the self-responsibility. However, if that action or belief influences the others, then s/he can not be allowed by the society to do that action. When it comes to religion, it always influences the one on the side. So, the others must have the right to say about the negatives of the religions. The followers of the religion by principle should listen to those criticims and improve their religious actions. Unfortunately it never happens. Most all religions are old and imperfect by knowledge. Human knowledge only explicitly increase million-fold in the last 50 years. No religion started in last 50 years. So, when these religions started, human knowledge was miniscule. That is the reason why all religions are so devoid of common sense by the scale of the actual human knowledge of today. It would serve the human race better if everyone looked for humanity versus religions.

When you have too much, it takes over your life, your thinking, your behavior, everything... and you become a religious fanatic. It will happen even with the best religion on earth. Just, a cautionary note!
