It doesn't matter what we think. The Italians decide on how to run their country.
If they want to place emphasis on that, let them. And I also wonder why anyone is upset. Are they upset at the mere mention of religion OR that it isn't their religion? Were the Muslim immigrants protesting the intrusion of religion into their public areas in their home countries? Or was it OK when it was their own religion?
The Italians while being strongly Catholic have defied religious figures often including on abortion, sex, and wars. They have every right to interpret how they want to live and their guests should understand that.
