I haven't read all this stuff, but I'll say anyway that I try very hard to insult beliefs, not the people holding the beliefs. If I ever insult someone, it's not my intention.
If people hold beliefs as their identity, there's not much I can do about that. I'd suggest that is an unhealthy way to be. For a free society, all ideas should be fair game for debate, criticising and satirising.
I'm angry at the harm religion causes (not literally running around mad, just very displeased you could say). I'm not angry at God or at Christians or whatever, unless a Christian is doing harm. Then I'm displeased with their actions.
