The reason that religion and intolerance has become synonymous is because the people who wear their pride on their sleeves usually end up being jerks.
Check twitter. Any profile that says things like "Proud Hindu" "Proud Muslim" "Proud Christian" turns out to have an a*****e behind it. Just scroll down and you will see them saying disgusting things about other religions, people, countries and spreading hatred and vile political agendas. Almost all of them turn out like that.
It's like in the US, if you see someone calling themselves a "proud white man" you can bet it's going to be a horrible person. It's not something that is said innocently. There is a whole framework and agenda behind it.
