It is a freedom people have, and should be able to exercise as long as it doesn't interfere with the lives of others around them.

My sister says this and I love it:
Most people say, I'm only human when they make a mistake. That phrase is a cop out, an excuse. I refuse to say it because it's just a reason to make a mistake, not try hard enough, and get off guilt-free about it.
I think that religion drives people to be better and find some kind path in the world. I hate how people use religion as a justifier because their actions aren't pretty or good. They think murder in the name of religion is less than murder period. I think people just use it as a way to get off guilt-free, just like that phrase "I'm only human".

No one likes to take the blame for their own actions so they use religions such as Islam or Fundamental Christianity as scapegoats.

Because people can not look in the mirror and deal with them selves so they put it on religions and God. The better question is why are peace activists so violent?

In the immortal words of the great, wise and very funny Eddie Murphy...
"Give a Ni**a a rope and he wanna be a cowboy!"
Because that is one of the most intelligent and poignant things I have ever heard... It is true!

The reason why they chose their belief in the first place is to be able to do dirt and not feel guilty about their evil actions.
Why are they so happy that Jesus(which never exist) died for their sin(murder, rape, ect

Why do non believers use their lack of belief to justify their ignorance?

I have no frelling clue. Religion doesn't mean anything anymore, it's been a means to an end for so long, and it's so easy to say, "Jesus told me to kill him because he's gay." or, "The Devil made me do it.", then it is to say, "Oh, yeah, I'm an @$$hole."
