How many of you would punish religious people for being religious?

RE: How many of you would punish religious people for being religious?
I’ve only ever heard of religious people punishing religious people for being religious. I can’t speak for all atheists, only for those I know and myself. I couldn’t care less what you believe. It’s only what you do that matters, and even then only to the extent that it negatively impacts other people.

Only the arrogant ones.

What good would that do?

I would only torment religious people if I were their god (and they disobeyed me like the golden calf incident, or I just wanted to stroke my ego as with Job). Demon

I believe everyone has the right to find their own meaning in life.  If that meaning is found by being a troll in forums, following a religion, or being nice to others, its all fine.

I have a problem with people who cause demonstrable harm to others.  If that harm is inspired by religion, or hate, that is NOT fine.

I want to punish all people equally.

If he/she thought science was provably superior to religion, and if he/she thought he/she was smarter than religious people.

It might be emotionally satisfying for the punisher.

Spoken like a true christian. I'm sure, that's what Jesus would have said.

Science is provably superior to religion, but that is not arrogance if it's a fact.

We are all smarter than some people in some ways, for instance, about our own personal affairs and professions.

OP: I don't really care until they personally offend me (i.e. you're going to hell/I'll pray for you/be gone satan), then it's game on.

And yes, I've heard them all.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
