"If we tiptoe politely around this reality, then we betray every teacher, guru and philosopher — including Jesus of Nazareth and the Buddha both — who ever sought to resolve the most human of all problems: How then should we live?"

I don't see any need to tiptoe around this reality but that is far different than the wisdom of avoiding arguments with crusaders, jihadists, or missionaries of any sort, which I do not consider genuine deliberation wrt beliefs.
