Japanese people have the special affection for human-shaped objects.
With the influence of Shinto culture, they often regard human-shaped objects as resting or residing room for souls, spirits or gods/deities. Though this custom is becoming obsolete, some Japanese take old dolls to shrines or temples to pray for the repose of souls. Priests or monks recite a sutra and the dolls are cremated. These might be the reason why some people in Japan often talk as if Vocaloid characters were real human beings.
It seems some MMD model creators take their works as the very expression of their souls with this cultural and religious belief. This strong affection for human-shaped objects may lead to the reason why they strongly reject editing or redistributing their models. They don't mean to be selfish at all; we should respect their feelings.

"'You should put examples with Jesus or God, things like that to make people understand...''
key words: EXAMPLES WITH JESUS AND GOD.
You didn't say use them as an example, you said use examples WITH Jesus and god.
because some people don't like Christianity. That's why.
I've read it over 10 times and I've come to a solid conclusion. TYVM.
Like I said before and I'll say it again. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK

Besides. Saying "Things like that...."Does not fix the situation. you're only adding on to it. Heres a better thing to do. If Damesuskekun wants to be the most hated person in MMD because of his overreaction, then let him. However, if you don't want to end up like him, then let everything fall right into place. Don't try to step into the middle of it because if you do, then you will get hurt <_<
Also, NEVER try to bring something LIKE religion into something as dramatic as MMD. Religion is already a touchy topic and with MMD with religion
...
Religion+MMD= Internet explodes
