Can someone help me understand how I'm a threat because of my beliefs?
Their beliefs about society and what it should be (and ultimately, whether its pleasing to God) revolve around a few key assumptions and taboos. Most of wich are derived from the bible. They view things like divorce, pre-marital sex, homosexuality etc as problems with moral fabric of society that they are charged with upholding.

Any publicity or public acceptance of any of those practices is what they consider an assault on their beleifs. They seem to fear nothing else like they fear the disolving of a societal taboo. The dissappearance of a taboo is like satan scoring a point. So we all hear them crying loudly over rediculous things like janets super bowl nipple because in their mind there is a connection between that nipple, and say, teens having sex; wich to them is an unacceptable problem that needs to be fixed. A problem where no practical solution is acceptable other than stopping kids from having sex. period. So anyone who teaches a teen how to have responsible sex, and anyone not opposed to seeing a nipple on tv is assaulting their way of life (in their mind).

As long as society accepts behavior that is opposed by the bible, they will feel under assault. Because if the behavior is acceptable, they are in danger of having their sheep wander from the flock.
