I'm not a fan, my country is basically christian, even tho we are technically a secular state (I hope this is the correct term, the term in portuguese is estado laico). There's a pretty big evangelical/protestant lobby in the government and a bunch of billionaire pastors.

We even have a very widespread coloquial term for evangelicals/protestants, the word crente (something like believer in a very quick translation). Part of my family is catholic, part is evangelical (I'm pretty sure I'm the only atheist), but even tho the crentes are known for being annoying about their religion, my relatives are very chill and don't really bring it up unsolicited (at least I don't remember it happening), so I can't say I have had a bad interaction with crentes outside the internet, where they are very annoying, specially because a lot of them tend to just go to comment sections to preach and spread hate towards lgbt people out of nowhere.

There's also the very big problem of pedophile pastors here in Brasil.

I don't have much experience with people from other religions, mostly I know a couple of muslims, but I'm not against religion in the sense that it should be prohibited, because I think everyone should be free to have and exercise their own beliefs. I'm against it in the sense that it is used as a tool to control people, and I think it will mostly wither away when people's needs are met since religion serves as a way to socialize and feel part of a community for a lot of people. But I could be wrong on this, since socialist states like Cuba have a very big christian population.

I think the way China deals with religion is probably the way. You allow people to exercise their beliefs, to carry their religious texts and symbols, to have their temples and churches and religious places, but you don't allow for public preaching and the state has the last say in it, maintaining it under constant supervision.
