Quote:Figure 1also shows that religious fundamentalism is much more prevalent among European Muslims than among Christian natives.
Among Christians agreement to the single statements ranges between 13  and 21 per cent and less than 4 per cent  agree with  all three items. In line  with what is known about Christian fundamentalism, levels of agreement are slightly higher  (4% agreeing with  all statements) among mainline  Protestants than among Catholics (3%),  and most pronounced (12%) among the adherents of  non-mainstream  Protestant groups.

However, even among these  groups support for fundamentalist attitudes remains much below  the levels found among Sunni Muslims.

I'm confused as to what you're arguing.
Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?

Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.

Anybody who doesn't think and act exactly like us must be punished.

Because that makes sense.

I agree, but I'm going to ignore you because your nasty language is beneath me. I'm a classy man.

Only judging by my own experiences in my own environment. Run down houses in the Red Light district, where the whores used to offer themselves in the streets in the 80ies and 90ies. By day the noisiest, most frequented and polluted parts of the city, where an elevated train runs through every three or four minutes. Also highrises on the outskirts of the city, quite modern in the 70ies, but now only populated by people who can't afford any better.

It's also an urban myth that they band together. There's a turkish community, the traditional one, moving in during the 60ies and 70ies, and there are all the other ones, who came in later. The Turks are the only ones having some community clubs.

Yeah, here in America we don't have the concentration that Yeauleaux points to being the case in the UK -- immigrants in the large coastal cities will gather into neighborhoods (and historically have), but once you get into the hinterland it's a negligible phenomenon.

Interesting. Please do elaborate which freedoms have been taken from you. I'm sure, I could relate if I only knew the extent of the heartbreaking freedom taking in progress.

He's an Egyptian. His main problem is expanding what he sees in Egypt to the whole Muslim world, including about 49 other Muslim-majority countries and American Muslims.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
