Look, I don't really care what you believe, as long as you leave me alone to believe what I believe.

But we didn't achieve this freedom on the basis of reason and logic, it took a fight, and we don't retain it without a fight, either.

Do I take it personally that non-Muslims are being killed all over the world just because they're not Muslims?
