The other thing I find totally objectionable is his famous position that Good Works are irrelevant and that God only cares about the internal ideology. This is a rejection of the Earthly consequences and the causal nature of human conduct. One would have to infer, by logical extension, that Bad Works similarly can't be judged on Earth. This opens the door to any kind of evil as long as it is consistent and derived from a devotion to God. This is reprehensible and is unbearable for those of us with whom these devoted people live. It is the same kind of thing that allows the devout to blow up abortion clinics.
