Not to be rude, but why should we care what you believe?

If there were a problem with holes being dug in the city people are not exacerbating the problem if they choose to just not dig holes.

Not everyone needs to be informed an act on whatever it is that others think is important. This belief really forms the backbone of the current, "if you're not with us, you're against us" mentality.

Whatever the cause is, it's entirely possible to just treat people decently without caring about who or what they are. That's where we should be encouraging people to get to, not demanding they jump into action.
