I think there's a big difference between tolerating stupidity and enshrining that tolerance in law
A civil society should be able to tolerate stupidity but should also strive towards reducing it. A law protecting it as a human right is neither helpful or desirable.

I think that's enshrined in laws guaranteeing access to education

access to education is guaranteed as a human right in this act
but so is the right of parents to be able to expect an education for their children that conforms with their religious convictions, regardless of how wrongheaded those convictions might be.
That's the most worrying bit.
