Er....those are the ones that are actually taking their 'Holy' books to be the inerrant and
actual 'Word of God'. Those 'nutters' are the only ones taking it the
right way. The rest are just ignoring the bits they think are insanely proscriptive and are, as such, taking their religion the 'wrong' way.
Sadly the books of the three Abrahamic faiths
all claim to be the 'Word of God' (as do countless other religious texts) and say that anyone who ignores bits are damned to Hell (or should be stoned to death, or both).
Religion is a real problem, and the 'liberal' religious types are poor human beings (due to their inability to be good people without being told what to do with vague threats) and poor believers (due to their inability to follow the 'commandments' of their deities).
