Religion should not or ever be an issue

wow...I just read some rants on the other blog which don't make sense. people being called racist, and some other unflattering remarks. Can someone fill me in on what she is talking about?
Religion should not or ever be an issue. Each person has the right to practice their religion as they see fit. Bringing it up to make it an issue is just wrong.
Are there racists in the village? Of course there are, but there is no place for it anymore. Get over it and move on.
The Inquisition was 500+ years ago.
