I'll answer that for myself, though I can't speak for anyone else here..
I don't view the behavior of Tazio and Master as having anything to do with either real religion or true hate speech.. That's just the vehicle they're using to get at each other. Do you really think all these insults they post to each other have any meaningful effect on anything but each other's tempers?? It would be an exercise in futility to interfere with the game they are playing- and it IS a game. I just spent some time at the Ask God thread, and it was exactly the same thing- only there it was alleged Christians ripping each other's throats out, spitting out a bible verse with the blood and then saying, oh, but I love you in Christ.

Intolerance crosses all boundaries, and is found in all groups; no one seems immune. So I;m trying to just tolerate everyone. :^)
As George Eliot said- The last refuge of intolerance is in not tolerating the intolerant.
