    People have a right to be stupid, though.

    Yes but regarding culture people always talk about how we need to preserve culture, obviously we shouldn’t actively work to preserve stupidity.
    And religion is stupid superstition and doesn’t deserve to be preserved, and where it is demonstrably harmful to others, it should definitely not be allowed.

    It’s no different than Nazi propaganda and organisations being illegal in most countries.

    Can I decide which parts of your culture don’t agree with MY values and take that away from you?

    If parts of our culture is demonstrably harmful, it is in our own interests to remove those parts. Racism would be a good example. And we are working on it, but somehow people keep being racist.
