I haven't remarked on it before but I really don't get this idea that you find religion ok as long as the religious don't talk or teach anyone about it. I grant you that I don't get in-your-face door to door evangelism either, and I think we have already agreed that I think a lot of the church teaching on contraception is positively harmful (and if we haven't let's do so now)

But even granting all that I can't get my head round the idea religion is ok if you keep it to yourself. It makes as much sense to me as saying concern for human rights is fine as long as you keep it to yourself.
