Western atheists have not grown out of the marxist pattern of self-justification, they are just trying to stand astride between the the east and the west, a kind of spoiled capitalists that even can not convince the eastern marxists, you have to rely on your own historical background as a resource of your individualism as allowed today freedom of expression, that is in a short word, the backside of the same coin of western civilization. Atheists can not prove themself anything better than the theists, by endlessly attacking the impalpables, laughing at the religious people they are actually disproving themself.
As for the muslims, they do not or failed to force onto buddhists, let alone the christians, there are many asian monarchies that are neither christian nor muslim, like Thailand and Japan or Bhutan, muslim mughals ruled India but India is not a muslim country, Islam is not likely expanded by force most of the time.
