Well to embrace certain belief or religion is one's personal rights. It should not be bothered with by anyone unless his beliefs violates other people rights to live and live without fear or discrimination. Just because a few people may have acted in the name of certain religion to the harm of another group of people we should not put the labeling that all's guilty thereof. Otherwise we are no better than these terrorists who think just that!
Even atheism in my understanding is also a form of belief. That's why you can happen to meet a fundamentalist atheist who couldn't tolerate anyone who believe in the concept of God. But atheists would not like to hear that this too is a belief. But even that is a belief including their refusal to view it as a belief. That too is a belief.
Heck anyone could believe anything he wanted as long he doesn't put other people at risk. Even politicians could believe whatever they want to believe like being the most talented person on the planet or the most capable or the most charming as long as they do not harm other people. Unfortunately they want to live their fantasies as well.....there lies the problems.
