10. That seems to be the best place to draw the line
Attacking the religion itself, rather than the person who believes it. I mean, if I say "Christianity is stupid" any Christians taking personal offence are reading more than what I am saying. I'm not saying you're stupid, just the belief system you subscribe to.

It's a fine line no doubt. This wouldn't be a problem if people were a whole lot more comfortable with their beliefs, and weren't so defensive and reactive when people question, or heaven forbid, disagree.
