Defense of faith, though, is hardly the same as bigotry.

You are arguing my point.
Defense of an Organized Religion is the same as Criticism of that Organized Religion.
It's no different that a liberals Defense of Organized Labor and the alternative Criticism of Organized Labor.
In neither case does criticism = bigotry.

My approach is live and let live. Let a person worship as he sees fit without criticism.

You're free to take that view. Others are free to take other views, especially if the actions of the organized religions in question have effects on them or their lives, or their viewpoints re: society as a whole.
I'm not supporting their specific criticism per se, only their inalienable right to express criticism without being labeled as a hateful -ism simply for expressing criticism
After all, isn't just that what many Conservatives argue Liberals do to them, call valid criticism racism, sexism or homophobia?

He is very much a robust critic of human, organized, religion, especially Chrisitianity and (now) Mormonism, aye.
