There's no hypocrisy in allowing criticisms of Christianity to pass. Political correctness would apply to slandering individuals, not to offering substantive criticisms of a religion like I've done here.

You seem to want to change the subject to secularism, and you suggest that I'm the one living in a dream world. You can think that if you like, but to show it you'd have to show what's wrong with the thousands of pages I've written on religions and modern secular culture.

For instance, what exactly is supposed to be wrong with the case I make here about Trump being a flawless Christian, given how Christendom betrayed Jesus's countercultural movement? Do you deny that conservative American Christians have idolized Trump in the way that Christians formed a cult around Jesus? Do you deny that Christian theology deals with elaborate conspiracy theories, making for an overlap with Trump's manner of thinking? Or do you deny that Christianity emphasizes "faith" rather than critical thinking, which likewise overlaps with Trump's penchant for bullshitting and gaslighting?
