It is easy to make cheap , shallow jibes at the expense of those who have deeply-held beliefs and outlooks on life different from one's own.

Wasn't it Jesus, in Matthew 5:39, who said 'Turn the other cheek', when faced with aggression?
I suppose that was well before mankind came along, and founded all the different churches in his name, and imposed their own bigotries, and ignored most of Christ's teaching.
