There's no substantive difference between saying "Ugh, I hate that my Christian teacher is having a kid!" and "Ugh, I hate that my black teacher is having a kid!" or "Ugh, I hate that my gay teacher is having a kid!" All such sentiments make you a bigot and asshole.
Or it's simply the case when someone says "I know that person. She/ he is a creep and I feel sorry for their children". She's not judging all the religious couples, as she tried to explain. Nevertheless Christians on this forum eager to feel persecuted quickly took that advantage and made it into that. I mean let's face it some kids are having it really hard because of their religious parents and what DA described the guy does sound like a fundie and a total idiot. I mean maybe DA is wrong the kid will have a happy childhood but maybe it will have hard life like some of these kids:

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
