is hating someone solely due to their religion "just as bad as" being racist?

It's fair to infer character from beliefs. To believe its fair to infer character from race is to be racist.

So only a racist thinks the two are equivalent.

Why? I though you agreed that people bring their morality to their beliefs. Someone who believes I will go to hell because I don't share their belief is telling me a lot about them.

Noticing someones race is telling me very little about them. Infering they are likely to have some belief or behave in a certain way because there is a correlation between people of that race and that belief/behavior is racist.

Maye some confusion because by their religon, I mean what they believe not being nominally a member of some religon.
