I don't think it's so much 'over selling' as it is 'reacting' or responding to religion being so in everyone's face these days. It's in politics, it's trying to (continue to) shape our laws, ''Creationism'' is trying to compete in school classrooms against science, etc.

I think that it's more of a reaction, and it's a needed response otherwise, religion will steam roll into everyone's lives, and it has no place doing that.

If religion remained private, and kept to itself, I don't think anyone would have a problem. I don't. If someone wishes to practice a particular faith ...that's their right. But, don't push it into politics and government and the public educational system.

So, to me, it's a reaction to religious zealotry.
