I think that's hasty. One shouldn't generalise from the fact that there are a 
(sadly increasing in number) bunch of fundamentalist wackos in it, that the 
religion as a whole is intolerant. Funny, I find myself trying to make this same 
point to my atheist friends on behalf of chrsitianity. Many people see 
christianity in precisely the same way, thanks to the, also largely intolerant, 
wacko fundamentalist christians.

It is too easy to paint all people with just one broad stroke. There are more 
tolerant than intolerant christians, and more tolerant than intolerant muslims. 
History bears this out, for anyone who is willing to study it. And if one 
requires proof, one need only talk to a few muslims.

-Mike



Mark: I wish it were do funny but it isn't.  Much as the political spin 
goes that Islam is said to be a religion of tolerance, it isn't and I 
suspect that this wayward church knows it.  What they have done in the 
knowledge of that will have serious repercussions of Christians in 
Muslim countries where they have a hard time of things as it is.  
Everytime the west upsets the Muslims the greater the persecution increases.

  I am happy to say that this wayward church has no support for these 
actions in my church or the Christian advocate societies.   I hope that 
church is held accountable for the deliberate act of provocation, or at 
least make a public apology.
