This isn't a democratic country, so you should rephrase your statement justifying this as "whether an authoritarian cabal should allow the propagation of a religion and mythology is entirely up to them"
A person's beliefs are up to them not their government.

We've chosen to give religion a free pass here, though the evidence to back any of its claims is quite flimsy. This subject is somewhat tough to debate. I had a wonderful Christmas day, though I'm not a believer.

How do you square that with the fact that most religious people were indoctrinated at an early age by their relatives and community, rather than developing their beliefs on their own? At the end of the day, it's not a struggle for freedom versus government control, it's a struggle over who gets to do the indoctrinating.
