Summary

This quote suggests that some individuals falsely label their personal ideologies as their religion, when in reality it is just a means to vent their negative emotions and display their arrogance. It implies that these people may use their supposed religious beliefs as a shield to justify their bad behavior, rather than truly following the principles and teachings of their religion. Ultimately, it highlights the discrepancy between genuine devotion to a religion and the self-serving actions of certain individuals who use it to fulfill their own desires.
