If you're going to use that kind of definition, then I participate in "Self-Labelism," pride of ownership for having the "right-for-me" religion.

Labels are important. It is how we use the labels (intentions) that can mean respect or disrespect. A few of the good labels are: mother, father, parent, sibling, lover, best friend, hard worker, etc. It's the intentions behind the labels that is so important.
We all know the negative labels, so I will avoid typing those out.

Because then people who don't believe in what the people who participate in "Labelism" consider to be the "right" religion will tend to keep away from said people to avoid being in such righteous company.

Most people do. There's a few open minded souls who really don't care what a person's religion is - but these types of people are usually so open-minded that they are ignostic - religousless folk like myself who believe that a person's CHARACTER is FAR more important to his chances in attaining a spot in heaven than where he goes to pray.

i have no idea which is the right one. nobody truly know for what reason we exist, or what created or built us, or what happens when we die.
since there is obviously no right religion, isn't 'labelism' a little silly?

I think we all have a LABELISM to anything and everything. Everybody is stereotyping these days no matter what it is.
