I don't see it as a battle to begin with. If someone tries to pester me or the mostly secular society I live in, I defend my territory, but otherwise I couldn't care less what anyone believes for themselves.

Same goes for this forum. The (mostly) christians and few muslims that come here have it coming. I don't pull my punches when I meet ignorant and stupid, but you won't find me on a christian board seeking a confrontation.

Last, I can only repeat what I'm always saying. If religion were to vanish entirely, the void would be instantly filled with new ideologies. There will always be people, who can't live without some kind of inner circle where they're allowed to feel special.
