I don't think so.
As I said, I don't blanketly discriminate against all Catholics, or members of any particular religion. I'm merely saying that for those who do hold beliefs that I'm opposed to, I would not hesitate to cite their religion as a reason why I didn't get along with them. I might, for example, find it difficult to get along with someone who held steadfastly to the antiquated notion of divorce being wrong, even in extreme cases like abuse, simply because it was dictated by their religious affiliation. That's an indication of a mentality that simply doesn't mesh well with my own, and for me, that's a perfectly valid reason to choose not to interact with someone.
