Religion is interesting because it brings out the best and the worst in humanity. It can be a source of good deeds, whether it's people from different spiritual backgrounds coming together to help other people in need after a crisis. But it's also a cause for war and bloodshed.
Whatever people in general do not understand, they are always prepared to dislike; the incomprehensible is always the obnoxious.
