AT,
I normally agree with the content of your posts, but you didn't say that part of religion is to debate others for their beliefs, you said it was "the spirit of religion", i.e. - the main driving force. To me that says "the primary reason for religion is to disagree/hate/war with others." I strongly disagree with that sentiment. I believe the primary reason for religion is to try and give purpose and direction to someone's life in a way that transcends natural law, not to simply be a platform for argument. I would, however, agree that a fallout of most (but not all) religious organizations is disagreement based on religious tenants. As a counter example of disagreement I present the Amish. I've spent time with them, and they're incredibly passive and non-intrusive on the beliefs of others.
