You're still simply disagreeing with them on what is or isn't harmful, and what we should do about people who commit those purportedly harmful acts. There's no point in having that disagreement with me, as I consider their faiths to be objectively immoral.
No, I don't think I am, Their system is well aware that death is harmful and infinite torture is the most harmful, and yet they are both used as moral forms of punishment.
