Well, it doesn't have to be a battle and there's no reason on earth why we should abandon the promotion of evidence and reason, even if you think that makes us sound like Mr Spock. Religion is very damaging on the whole, narrowing people's minds and giving them false hopes and false certainties, and that's just the more benign aspects of it. It doesn't deserve respect and the arguments against it will not go away, neither should they. You want us to leave you alone. The very last thing religion does is leave people alone, sadly. We think it would be wrong to leave it like that. There's still room to talk about other things. We can and we do.
