i mean things like seasonal greetings and parties, showing st georges flag, etc no other group seemed to have problem with it, notice that uk is a christian country, no one goes to iran and tells them what to do

I do have muslim friends, who are nice people, and they themselves dont like the whole thing. I just think no religion should determine countrys traditions, exept of its domestic

Didn't you know the Muslims found it "offensive" that America has slogans like "In God we trust", "One Country under God", and "God Bless America"?
And they had come here whining and crawling, asking for refuge and asylum!?
An American judge was forced to retire because the local Muslims found his slogan "In God we Trust" - "offensive" and Christian bias!?!?!
Oh, by the way, most of the Brit Muslims are, incidentally, Pakistanis.
Why do you think all Brits keep saying "Paki, go home!"?
If, like Seiglinde says, it's a fact that they feel offended by the Christian "Symbols", who's asking them to stay in a Predominently non-Muslim Country?
They're perfectly welcome to leave and go back to their Islamic Homelands where they will not find these offensive things; becuase their countries are Theocrasies unlike England and Usa etc. where they are intolerant and bigoted as a Government.
Why should we allow these beggars to be choosers here?
If you ask me, it was a grave mistake that all our non-Islamic Countries committed by letting these fanatics come here and practice their "Religion"!?
It's still not too late. If all of us non-Muslims get together and oppose them, we can still
[a] ban Islam as a segregationist "Cult".
[b] revoke thier "Citizenships" for Treason, since they all believe in their Islamic Nation and
[c] deport all of them as unwelcome aliens.
I think we should also stop issuing Student and Tourist visas to these people because that's how they come here and then dig in.
Also, I think that our Governments should be forced to support the production of bio-regenerable fuels like ethanol and bio-diesel and we should all put an embargo on oil from Islamic Countries.
I'll take a bet that the moment we start this, they'll start whining about the discrimination and opression they are facing.
Oh, by the way, expect to get "Violation Notices", thumbs down and a lot of foul-mouthed e-mail from these great people!? And, of course, having our Question and Answer deleted for "Insulting other Participants" since there seem to be some Employees of Yahoo who are Islamic Supporters.
PS,
It's also, probably, true that not all the Muslims are like that, but we can't help having some "Collateral Damage", can we?

you know I've noticed that too, I think in the UK is a little too accomodating, I'm not saying to stop being tolerant, but is not fair for ya'll to stop being who you are as a nation because these people refuse to "melt in the melting pot" .
I even heard that the muslims in the UK want to have a dual law system that incorporates shariah law, is that true?
I hope not, one of the things that make the UK a great country are its laws and common sense of raising above religion.
I mean ya'll came up w/ the Magna Carta, if ya'll didnt let a king have absolute power, why should religion, (which is run by a bunch of wackos, NEway), have it ?
Best of luck!!!!

Last time I checked, Britain was NOT a theocracy! Yes, there is a "Church of England", but it's not mandatory. I think you have your facts mixed up about the whole "people not doing anything [Christian]" because it offends Muslims. I think they mean they don't want ONLY Xtian symbols displayed on public grounds, say, on holidays, much the same as here in the U.S.

HA! HA! Some of you crack me up!
The Muslim community is pushing and pushing to see how far they can get, NOT extremists, but all of them.
The Queen in case anyone did not know, or has forgotten, is the defender of the Protestant faith, so the UK religion is Christian!
And it is time she got off her **** and said something.

Yes, please don't email me any Christmas Cheers, and don't send me any Christmas Gifts, and by all means, do not invite me to church. Maybe you could give me directions to the nearest mosque so I can hear the cleric declare a fatwa on the Queen. Oh yes.
Sorry, no offense, but when does this lunacy end.

why should the innocent Muslim law abiding citizens of the UK pay for the extremists crap??
i think lumping all Muslims together is not fair.

If you try to please anybody, we're just going to have to become like zombies.... Really, if they don't like what other people think/believe in their country, then move.
