It's definitely stupid, but government officials have a right to say what forms of religious recognition will be allowed on government property or not. It's our job not to elect stupid people.

No, actually the Constitution says what's allowed on public property. The Free Exercise clause is too often being ignored in today's day and age in favor of the "establishment clause". Allowing a movie studio to display posters about a religious movie does not constitute a congressional establishment of religion.
And this is just the latest example of an overall climate of secular harassment and persecution of religion in general and Christianity in particular.
