In theory, I disagree. First amendment and all that.
In reality, I agree. It certainly seems as though religion is a sacred cow (pun intended) that no one is allowed to criticize. For instance, there's the recent papal bull that states no one should criticize religion very explicitly and that doing such is hate speech. People tend to get very defensive about religion, and unfairly so.

Disagree. It's impossible to grow intellectually (or spiritually), if you don't question and criticize anything. Religion is only a belief system, and is not viewed as fact by all. Even science criticizes and questions itself.

Disagree. Why should anyone think religion should be exempt from criticism, especially when most religions criticize all other religions and nonbeliefs within their teachings.

You can criticize anything you want, including religion, but it won't get you anywhere - religion has no rationality or logic, so any arguments for or against, depending which side you're on, will come across as irrational or illogical to the other party.

you criticize that people have died in holy wars. why difficulty having freedom considering an excellent style of have died for it? the stable issues in existence are well worth scuffling with for. if all people knew and understood what God is, there could be no faith. many faiths have self assurance that God is a tension or being or some thing that isn't manage to be defined. this ticks off an excellent style of people because of the fact they choose to comprehend those solutions. considering they see that they can't comprehend this, they see faith as irrational. you suggested that religions attempt to suppress questions and doubt. fake. some people spend too a lot time analyzing related to the dark a while and such. in case you spend purely a sprint time right this moment, you will see that many religous leaders could be happy to describe what you have difficulty understanding. some nonetheless will, regrettably. yet once you relatively take the time to discover the solutions you're searching for, you will discover them someplace. a significant topic with the aid of many prepared religions is admire for the existence of your fellow guy. im no longer an authority on the religions of the worldwide, yet i comprehend that the Bible surely preaches love in direction of existence of you fellow guy, and that i'm cetain that maximum, of the different significant religions do the comparable. the call of what to have self assurance is you very own, yet accomplish that for the wonderful motives. dont save on with a definite faith because of the fact your parents inform you to, or considering you like their regulations on some thing so uncomplicated as meat on friday's. take some holiday of you fairly busy existence to discover some solutions. in case you're taking an independent innovations and seem for what makes the main experience to you, then you're doin some thing good. faith's existence is results of the passing down of custom and Scripture from each respective faith. the faults are no longer glaring, yet they seem obvious to those that do no longer take time to comprehend what they actually advise.

Disagree. Most people generally wouldn't criticize certain groups of individuals. It's pretty much taboo to blame a soldier for a war that's going lousy, and you can't really go around shouting negative, critical stereotypes of another race.
I suppose in theory you could criticize these things, but you'd get a butt-kickin'!

Well, since a perusal of my past answers indicates I criticize religion (and the religious) all the time, I guess I disagree....
