They don't make sense.

We have no need for them.

They hate certain groups of people for no reason. (TERFs hate trans people and men, while religious people hate gays, bisexuals, trans people, atheists, other religions, somewhat agnostics, etc. ...)

They annoy everyone (that has brains, anyway).

They indoctrinate.

Etc.

The list goes on!
Acid Krtiana Acid Krtiana Religious people attacking atheists is like feminists attacking Men's Rights Activists (MRAs). They're allowed to, for no reason, and they don't have to listen to their side. They control the government and politics.
