Introduction

This page is for investigation into the idea that some forms of religion do so much net harm that they are worth fighting against in some way, where such fighting is not necessarily of a physical or legal nature; it could be as mild as educational or advertising campaigns (meme warfare) designed to expose the damage done by the religion in question, the flaws in its doctrine, and so on.

If the concept seems to be valid, this page will further document the idea. If it seems to be invalid, this page will document the arguments against the idea.
