It's the same fucking sentiment I give to people who presume to tell me how to do my job: I don't go into their workplace and tell them how to do their jobs; I don't go to AA meetings and tell them how to run their meetings; I don't go to gyms and tell people how to work out, and I sure as shit don't go into doctor's surgeries and tell the patients what to do with their medical advice.
Oh, and plus I don't despise people who have different beliefs to me, which I think I can safely say, is the number one difference that I see between your outlook and mine.
