This may surprise you, but it is not because of your beliefs.
Rather, it is because of your pride in forcing those beliefs onto others - through law, and taking away people's right to choose for themselves, a secular path.
No one is forcing you to accept gay marriage - just to let individuals decide for themselves, and even if it is legal, you have every right to maintain your personal opinion.
No one is forcing you to have a first trimester abortion if you cannot afford a proper life for that child. Just that you let people decide for themselves, and face the consequences for themselves.
No one is forcing you to believe in evolution - just to keep your beliefs that are faith-based, out of public schools.
No one is forcing you to accept Atheists, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, secular Deists, etc - just that you allow them to practice, with choice, the morals of their own if they do not directly affect you.
Stop trying to be prideful, stop proselytizing - you won't be hated as much
