Incitement To Religious Hatred

Freedom requires tolerance, and a certain resilience.

If no-one is prepared to tolerate things they don't like to hear, then no-one will be able to say anything contentious. If no-one can say anything contentious, then no-one can challenge the status quo - whether that is in terms of ideas or institutions.

Those who hope to benefit from a law against inciting religious hatred ought to develop a thicker skin, because if they don't our society will be less free, less flexible, less adaptive, less rational, and less worth living in.
