Nice SW ref...umm, yeah to a point, I think it depends on context and what is being discussed. If someone is saying, we want to give these churches tax-free benefits and then even more tax money to do "the lord's work" under the guise of an outreach program...us vs them. If you are talking about sharing a human experience with friends and family who are religious, then you have to shift the goalposts and adopt a more inclusive attitude, unless they try to force shit down your throat, in which case, rationally pointing out the inadequacies and negative consequences of their beliefs is warranted.
