Except that it's not reasonable. At all.

That's like arguing that we shouldn't eat pork, because it "disrespects muslims", or that women should wear a hijab, because to not do so would "disrespect muslims". It's absurd.

We have to stop respecting religions, because a religion is just an ideology, and like any idea, has no rights and deserves no inherent respect.

It's no different than asking someone to respect capitalism, or communism, or fascism.

We must be fearless in our criticism of religion. We must be unafraid to offend. We must scrutinize everything, regardless of whether or not it offends people or makes them uncomfortable.

Anything less is cowardice.
