I went with B
I know "Christians" who are good people, but they are not devout.
I do think the more devout a religious person is, then inversely the more immoral they tend to become. Of course in their own eyes, these people are "moral" in the religious sense, but in the real world there's nothing moral about shoving your unwanted opinions down other peoples' throats.
That's how I feel. Sure, I guess there's some people out there who are strictly religious in their own personal life choices but don't care what other people do, but those people are few and far between. Most extremely devout Christians and Muslims can't keep their religion and their opinions to themselves, because being a parasite who has to spread the religion is a core theme of both faiths.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
