In my opinion, if one keep their religion where it belongs (between themselves and their god) instead of wearing it on their sleeves, or shoving it down others throats- No one would have a damn word to say about your religion.

to spend St. Pat's day in Ireland a couple years ago.

I had a blast. Sometime during the evening, I appropriated an Irish sidewalk!

that would be the appropriating part...

As for mocking, well, religious beliefs aren't exempt from critique whatever color a person is.

Masturbating men ‘will find their hands pregnant in the afterlife,’ ‘claims Muslim televangelist’
http://metro.co.uk/2015/05/25/masturbating-men-will-find-their-hands-pregnant-in-the-afterlife-claims-muslim-televangelist-5215134/

This will be devastating news to anyone who enjoys a little self-pleasure once in a while.

A Muslim televangelist has reportedly claimed that men who masturbate will find their hands pregnant in the afterlife.

‘Moreover, one hadith states that those who have sexual intercourse with their hands will find their hands pregnant in the afterlife, complaining against them to God over its rights,’ Hurriyet quotes him as saying.
