It's one thing that it says something in a book and a totaly different to acctually act after it. If there were a non religious book that was written as long ago as a lot of religious ones and that had the same impact in the past you were still alowed to read that nowadays. But the second you actually do the stuff the Bible says no religion protection law makes it legal or right. The problem is not the book. The problem are the institutions and a few idiots.
So don't make the mistake of generalizing everybody just because they are religious, because then you're making the same mistake those religious idiots.
And religion shouldn't be outlawed. That just creates a world where the people who believe in religion will have to hide their beliefs. The correct way is to stop giving Christianity special treatment and start treating them as normal people who happen to believe in something.
But thats exactly what I said was not ok. There is a big difference between some old book saying something and people actually acting after it.
