If it is souls that you are concerned about...
Keeping religion on a relatively private level isn't harmful, and putting it out there on a public level isn't really helpful either. At the end of the day, people will believe what they will, and make their own spiritual choices.

Persecution of Christians is an easy find. There are so many
examples where to begin? Just a few days ago four Christians
were killed by an Islamist in Egypt. And in Iran four Christians
were sentenced to 80 lashes for participating in communion.
Is that mild? What about some of the children that were shot
at one our American schools for being Christian (Columbine,
I believe - double check that later)?
If you don't see it -
you don't want to see it.
A loss of Christian privilege is something I'll comment on later,
along with keeping our beliefs private.
