I think a little differently about this issue. I think religions act as a group rather than as individual things. You see this especially when looking at the heads of different religions voting on issues in different venues, for example about issues concerning religions in countries. Interestingly, it will be important to see how different religions feel about Scientology, I think they may hold the key to really getting rid of that sect.

Unfortunately, religions tend to act together rather than against each other, especially in the modern world where scientific thinking is lessening the hold that religion holds on societies.
