I would be pleased to provide you some examples of the genuine article, few of which would be ridiculous, but all of which you might find quite uncomfortable.

It may come as a surprise, but people are allowed to criticize religion, even to display open contempt for it as a system of thought, and people are certainly entitled to judge one by its fruits, by the behavior of its adherents.
