Amusingly correct

I will fight to the death for their right to be indifferent.
Everyone has a right to indifference, but the point I am trying to convey is that this apathy allows people who are motivated to get things done. And thats one thing you have to give to the religious, they are certainly well motivated and unified towards a common cause(usually to further their own influence)

You've got it bang on, and I think that is also the reason why so few people bother to use their vote at election time.

I don't want to feel powerless. I want to effect change
