As Agnostics/atheists, are we obligated to be antagonistic to all religions equally? I find the most intriguing of religions to be dudeism (see attached pic) and pastafarianism (see link for new amazon prime movie).

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.As an agnostic, I try to be stoic about it. It's outside my orbit of influence; I had nothing to do with their creation, and cannot sway or alter them in any way,
To be antagonistic, I'd have to think my negative opinions or actions would diminish them in some way. I don't think they would. If anything, my disapproval might give them strength by providing them an enemy against which they could unite. Ignoring them, if it's a religion I dislike, might be the best thing for my peace of mind, and just maybe deprive them of both a friend AND an enemy.
So, to the best if my ability, I praise things I like, disregard the rest.
Dudeism sounds praiseworthy.

Some religions are better than others. Joke "religions" are not real religions. I see no real harm in them but I find pastafarianism to be juvenile. The best religion I found in many decades of looking was Society of Friends of the most liberal variety. They do no harm and some of them are universalists. The worst are evangelical christians and extremist islam.
