Not really the point. What drags religion into less repute than it might otherwise enjoy is not that the occasional egregious statement is made, but rather that there's no inbuilt mechanism to fact-check these things afterwards. Hence the same discredited views get amplified through repetition in a sort of positive feedback loop - what has become known as Unsinkable Rubber Duck arguments, or PRATTs (Points Refuted A Thousand Times).
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
