(n.) Ones' religion, that one was persuaded into belief of by man or miracle. Usually refering to the denomination as opposed to the actual religion.
I am a Christian, of the catholic persuasion, and will defend my beliefs against anyone who challenges them, unless thier misinterpretation is so great, that they should simply DIE, which rules out most people who talk about contradictions in the bible and other claptrap.

"Religious bigot" is a term used to stigmatize people that pose irrefutably good arguments as to why organized religions are antisocial institutions and harmful to humanity. Otherwise known as an "Ad Hominem," people from religious orientations often attack the people making arguments against their beliefs as opposed to their actual arguments.
1. "John says that my religion is destructive to humanity."
2. "John is a religious bigot, and likes to masturbate to furry porn."
3. "Therefore, John's argument is false. How could you trust a bigot that faps to furries?"
And so on.

A writer’s religious partiality becomes clear when he chooses the names of the characters for most of his stories, novels etc. from his own religion.
A: I have tried to invent a new term called 'a writer’s religious partiality'. When a Muslim writer sits at the desk to write a story, then he thinks about Muslim names for the characters. Similarly, when a Hindu writer decides to write a story, Hindu names appear before his mind; a Christian writer chooses Christian names for his novels, dramas etc. But, sometimes a Muslim, Hindu and Christian writers also choose the characters' names from other religions. However, it happens 'sometimes'. In most of the cases, a writer's religious partiality becomes clear. I must say that this kind of partiality is normal and accepted by everyone. There's nothing wrong in it because a writer’s religious faith, his upbringing, his own community etc. influence him to choose names from his own religion.

Not content to refer to those who disagree with them as the "Religious Right" or "Christian Right", some moonbats demonize their adversaries further by referring to them as the "Religious Reich".

Any person that does not believe in organized religion but believes in a god and the core principle commonality found within the earliest versions of all religious doctrines of, "Love thy neighbor".
I am an anti-religious-theist that believes in an individuals right to believe in any god they do choose as long as that belief does not disregard right over wrong morally and does not intentionally hurt anyone else. My religion believes in love.
Not absolutism of one religion being right over another and not who is entitled to what property or possession or land. And not classifying any human being to be better or worse than another.
Just universally recognized love.

The Dunning-Kruger effect, summarized, states that fools are blind to their own foolishness, and the more foolish, the more blind. Ignorant people tend to see themselves as highly competent, particularly in the areas in which they are mostly uneducated.
In religion, the most dramatic example of the Dunning-Kruger effect is Creationism. The Bible as a Top-secret code for living a good life is ignored and some interpret the bible literally and are totally unable to interpret it as anything but the exact, word-for-word literal truth. Therefore, in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, they insist the world is 6000 years old. "There is nothing new under the sun" references wordplay and why copyright infringement cases are mostly frivolous affairs of Human egoism. The newborn human child is something created new and proves we should not take every word literally.
It is a Top-secret code to be interpreted and understood individually.
People tend to be born into their religions, but the most obvious effect of the Dunning-Kruger is with the migration from Christianity to atheism or agnostic beliefs.
If you think you are a monkey's uncle, and yet claim to have moral superiority while denying absolute morals…then you are displaying the Dunning-Kruger effect.
The comfort generated by being in a majority fuel the effect and allows the effect to spread via religion.
An example: is a Family majority uniting to shun the only family member willing, to be Honest.

Religious Dunning-Kruger is why After her funeral the family all shared a meal together except the one not invited who in her spirit gifted all two dozen of her long-stemmed yellow roses to the ladies working the hometown stores that night. Her spirit spread happiness after she died using the flesh of her firstborn son.
