I think that's the basic point of this though; for some reason religion IS touchy and many think criticizing it or those who follow shouldn't be allowed, when their point is that it SHOULD be ok, as much as it is ok to call someone out for thinking anything else they think is foolish.
Think of it this way, instead of hate the sin love the sinner, it's hate the religion love the religious. It's not personal.

I sometimes wonder where the line between Freedom of Speach and Hate Literature is.

Saying attacking someone's religious beliefs is hate literature is like saying attacking someone's political slant is hate literature.. It's something one believes, not something one is (such as black or gay or Scottish).
