Religion can be democratic:

For the record, the fact that many Christians see it as our goal to influence culture ("be salt and light" in our lingo) does not automatically mean that we seek to impose our vision through government oppression. A healthy democracy supports many people's visions of the good, even visions that are held in absolute conviction. This is true of religious and secular perspectives alike. It is in the church's best interest to uphold such a pluralistic society, in order to let the gospel flourish and be freely accepted by those who need to hear it.

Atheists can be suicide-bombers:

In his own studies, [Scott Atram] reports that the greatest predictors of suicide bombings is not religion but group dynamics. A group of people get together, they eat the same foods, they dress they same, and they become ‘fictitious kin’ – blood brothers, as it were. They are willing to die for each other.

And Julian Baggini thinks that Richard Rorty is to blame for all our problems:

Unless we can make a convincing case that the choice is not between relativism or dogmatism, more and more people will reject the former and embrace the latter. When they do, those who helped create the impression that modern, secular rationality leaves everything up for grabs in the marketplace of belief will have to take their share of the blame.
