It's not about acting in the way Anon wants everyone to act, it's about acting in a basically decent way. I think - or I hope - that the point being made is that it is almost as harmful to ignore the presence of evil and not try to counter it, as it is to actually do something evil. No one has the right to complain about how a bad minority gives the rest of them a poor name when they're doing nothing to fix the fact that there is a bad minority. And with religions, a lot of time the bad minority are the people in charge, the people whose opinion is always front and centre.

An analogy: if you found out that a local club you belonged to was, say, discriminating against homosexuals, would you carry on supporting them and giving them your money? Would you continue to defend them against outsiders because you don't agree with that, it's just a bad minority who do?

Don't forget that media in many countries is owned by people who have a stake in keeping things the way they are, and which are more likely to endorse and report on the conservative end of any religion because of that. You may not have heard of the people who are religious who are defending views you agree with because the things they say wind up on the back pages of the newspaper if they get in there at all.

Go research at a few websites and look at organizations and think about whether or not you're asking for something that already exists.
