What for? I could eat my ham and cheese sandwiches anytime and anywhere while my muslim friends still looking out for muslim food stores. :P
Honestly, there shouldn't be anything to be jealous about between religions.

No, that's not the reason.
A much greater percentage of Muslims practise what they preach, when compared with Christians, including Protestants.
I'm Protestant. And I am so often put to shame when my fellow Christians do not live according to the light of the Bible. They give other religions a very distorted image of Christianity. One example to illustrate this point. A very good friend of mine who worked on a ship visited the Middle East. When they saw his lifestyle, they asked him what was his religion. He replied, "I'm a Christian." "No," he was told, "you can't be. You must be a Muslim; Christians don't have that lifestyle". What a picture of Christianity we present to the other religions!! Least you get the wrong idea, I'm not perfect but I do try. I wish more Christians were as zealous about their religion as most Muslims (and Hindus, for that matter) are about theirs (and I do not mean fanatics, suicide bombers, etc).
Did I sound like a self-righteous preacher? Sorry; I'm not.

I dont think so ..I think they believe that Muslims are torturing their woman and killing innocent ppl which is not true. Some nut cracks go too far I khow but this is not at all desirable and is hated by God and his true beilievers and prophets. I think protestants think it is thier obligation to SAVE the world and take ppl out of their so called non exsistant suppression imposed by Islam. This is why they get so furious at everythin.

There is too much Christian vs. Maslom. How about bringing in some other religion . Like Shinto , Jainism or Jewishness?

Yes. We are a jealous religion that keeps it eyes on all others......
No, some people have problems swallowing the fact that people don't agree with them, but, it seems that each has it own rules, benefits, standards that can be appealing

Um, er, are you like for real? I don't think people embrace a dogma based on popularity. This isn't a pageant, afterall.

Christians greatly outnumber Muslisms worldwide. There are about 1.1 billion Muslims. There are at least one billion Roman Catholics.
Protestants generally do not have inferiority complexes about how larger their group is. Rather, it is how pure their doctrine is.
