I think there are two types of arguments which can head to violence easily.
One is where someone is backed into a corner for what they believe and can not defend it.
The other is where someone is very vocal about their option, accepts no others as even possibly valid, and they are (in the eyes of the one about to throw the punch) just completely WRONG.
Religion gets to have both. You can beat down just about any religion with the logic stick, and you can trigger the 'WRONG' emotion as well in people who really do believe.

Well said, and you did it without heads flying <applause>.
