Freedom of belief is not an absolute right, nor is it a suicide pact. You do not have to tolerate people who want to destroy you, even if they claim they want to destroy you because god told them so. The Paradox of Tolerance is in full effect; To protect tolerance ideologies that are intolerant must be controlled, suppressed, or destroyed. It doesn't matter if they're secular, religious, or a secret third thing. Christian Fascists don't get any kind of pass because they're a religion. The same goes for Wahhabism, Hindutva, and similar ideologies that do not play well with others.

Contrast with mainline Protestants, some Secular Islamic states, and prior tolerant Hindu governments that weren't hell bent on exterminating the Muslim and non-Hindu minority.

You have every right to believe whatever the fuck you want but when you turn it in to a political movement and start harming others you are responsible for your actions.

    The Rapture itself is a pretty radical heresy. You have to be way out in the woods to believe in something like that.
