No, that isn't the problem. The problem is that you think that only your beliefs are valid. You are wrong. People can believe whatever they believe for whatever reasons they choose, and those beliefs are as valid as yours. If you think you are going to win any points by attacking those beliefs, you are seriously mistaken. You might find it personally satisfying, but all you are doing is masturbating.
They can believe whatever backward ass bronze age superstitions they want to believe in.
They just can't break the law and deny services to people they don't like using that as an excuse.
The fact they selectively read their own superstitions to rationalize their hatred vs. their greed just shows their hypocrisy.
Arguing that PA laws are beneficial to society and religious beliefs are not a justification for violating such laws is an argument which might well get you somewhere. However, coupling that with vitriol showing contempt for anyone who does not agree with you pretty much nullifies it. The reality is that bigotry exists on both sides of any social issue, as you have shown us.
