I also never used the term "religious machine." I did not intend nor did I brand all "religious" people "xenophobic" or "close minded."

I was specific in my statement as I clearly organized the entire thought into a single sentence which was seperate from the one that preceded it.

my bad here is what you said

As per usual, religion is the engine of intolerance. Whenever the religious right stage these kind of protests I cannot help but shake my head at their xenophobic, close minded mentality.
just replace the bolded part with lets say Whenever people like this - instead you branded every one who is on the religious right a "xenophobic" and "close minded " - even though you have no evidence to suggest that they all share the same opinion.

I agree with your statement, i just dont agree with broad application of it.
