That would be a pointless and silly objection.  That is precisely how a group is defined.  

If individuals don't wish to be lumped in with the group of individuals who all have those common hobbies, then they can stop engaging in those hobbies at their own leisure.  Nothing to do with me, not my problem...except insomuch as they insist upon making it so....which ofc is exactly what we're discussing...huh?

Rhythm, 

Maybe we are splitting hairs here.  Simply stating that you make generic and broad claims about all religious people.  Be they stereo-typical or your own perceived ideas that the "religious group" does/stands for.  You stated:

Maybe it has something to do with religious people casting jesus' vote in absentia, or with their noted ability to shittify other peoples lives at every conceivable level? Or maybe it's the piled on affrontery of watching those very same, very religious people play a limp victim card at any given opportunity?

I'm a religious person and don't fall in to any of those categories and I know non-believers that fall in to some of those (playing victim card, shittifying others, etc).  You seem to have a particular person type in mind when you hear someone is "religious", but my friend that simply does not conform with reality.
