You keep comparing religion to Coca Cola.
I think the root difference with you is that you see religion as some kind of addiction, and think lowly of people who have found some kind of faith. Like it's a weakness or something.
It's not about politics, is it...

"You keep comparing religion to Coca Cola."

No. I think people are badly confused about what it means to "promote" something. I picked two non-contentious examples to give people a chance to back up and get clear on the concept. Then I invited them, once they actually understood what they were saying, to reconsider whether it's possible to promote religion without requiring someone to join a particular faith.

But having read your previous post, if you're telling me you didn't understand, I believe you.
