"For me one of the most worrying aspects about this militant secularisation is that at its core and in its instincts it is deeply intolerant".

Completely unlike the world's religions, which are SOOOOOOO inclusive in their acceptance of the beliefs of others. Do these people ever read or listen to the stuff that comes out of their mouths?

Wanna' talk about "intolerance"? There's enough intolerance in the world's religions to completely dwarf that of any secularists.
