Could it be said that activism (of any flavour) is akin to religion?? The question arose from the Veganism thread ....

hmmm...good question. I imagine that people can approach their activism with religious zeal.

I look at the word "activism" to be more of a modifier in that sense. One can be a Christian, and one can be an activist christian. One can be an atheist, another can be an activist atheist.

Good question...sounds like a good topic for another thread Kich
