No we are not! It differs officially from country to country and beyond that it says nothing about how many of the people actually living there (dis)believe. I live in a country with a head of state tied to the church, and yet I'm an atheist. Go figure.

That would be true if we weren't needlessly at war with them.

You're speaking for all Muslims and yet I'm convinced you've never even spoken to one, have you?

Christianity works in the west. And Islam doesn't. Why? Do we really need to research it? Just look.
I must beg to differ. I don't think any religion works in a governing position whatsoever.

I don't say Christianity is good. But it's better than Islam.
And right now people are or some are religious. Maybe one day they aren't.
And there are many Christians in USA, yes. But here in Denmark, mainly the Danish people are Atheists.
But we got churches because Denmark was/is Christian and it is a part of our culture.
Just as Islam is. Get over it.

I see no rational reason for you or others to attack them, and that's why I'm defending them.
I'm getting really sick of this crap. Stop targeting Islam and ignoring other religions. It's needless discrimination brought on by a knee-jerk reaction from two (
two) idiots decapitating someone. The sort of arguments you're making are identical to the sort of apologetics that the religious pull in the God vs Fact thread and yet you're completely blind to it.
We already have Islam here and we get the occasional violent extremist because of it. We also get the occasional violent extremist because of Christianity. Heck, we get the occasional violent extremist who isn't even motivated by religion at all, and yet you'll ignore all of these people and focus solely on Islam because of your previously closeted irrational fear of Islam i.e. Islamophobia.
It's utterly depressing to me how quickly people can become so irrational because of a single event like this.
