dreamer_easy... but before I get stuck in, here's a clever remark from the Interwebs: "Why burn one religious book and cause a problem when we can burn every religious book and solve one?" Clever, clever! For the same reason we tolerate religion, however foolish or dangerous we may think it:
because we know the results of not tolerating it.
(But in fairness, if any prominent atheists are calling for the suppression of religion, I haven't encountered it.)
