Honestly, religiousness in of itself doesn't really have a right to be criticized. Religion defines the supernatural for many people and cannot even be defined in a scientific context, unless particular parts are taken literally, which, if you are taking religion as a literal history, you're missing the point of religion... A person should be judged individually on what they bring to the table, not what religion they are.

A few things of note, personally:
- Morals are not based in religious beliefs and people who claim otherwise perhaps have their own shady moral structures.
- Religious people in of themselves are not necessarily bad, since religious beliefs are often extremely interpretive; however, there is a point where excessive literal readings cause problems. Again, judge case-by-case.
- Since religion is subject to interpretation, anyone using the Bible or any other religious text to exclaim something is true outside of a religious context is a fairly bigoted individual, usually.
