The problem with religions is that they have discriminated against women, and gays, since their inception hundreds of years ago and even modern one's like Christianity and Islam still do it.

Islamic laws regarding women can be barbaric, like stoning, or women having no positions of power, but even the Catholics keep nuns subservient to priests who's hand they must kiss and person they must obey.

Not to mention both religions discriminate against gays.

Every single major religion I can think of discriminates against women and gays, as they are all barbaric, primitive and unsophisticated philosophically.

And yet most of the world still follows their nonsense.

Sure they can, I am intolerant of religions that practice sacrificing virgins to the gods for rain-lol.

Or an atheist who enables infanticide or practices genocide. Doesn't have to be a religion to be evil. A secular (Democratic) society is tolerant of multiple beliefs and ideas; but follows it's laws and civil processes.

There are times when laws can and morally should be broken however, I am very undogmatic and relativistic in many matters. :-)
