..because those symbols "offend" them ? Do Christians demand change in Islamic countries as Islam demands change in the U.S. ???

Maybe things are different where you live, but here, I can't think of a single thing that Muslims have even asked others to do. Could you be more specific?

Islamic countries have no covenant to live by the U.S. Constitution. So Christians in those countries have no basis for demanding that Islamic symbols be taken down.

No Christians in Islamic countries try to keep their Bibles from being taken and not being hung. An example is the Christian man who barely got out of Afghanistan alive. It took a major international effort to save him.

Islam does not demand change in the US. If there are so many Muslims in the US who want Christian symbols taken down then bring them to me. Find me evidence to support your claims. You'll find it tough, because there really aren't many people of other religions who want this sort of thing. It is a lie made by the Christian right who want to make enemies and say "they want to destroy our way of life!" in order to drum up more fanatical support.

I am not sure what Islamic symbols you are talking about, however, the fact is that in their own countries Christians are even making laws against Islamic symbols. Muslim women can't wear hijab (veil), and muslim girls wearing even a head-scarf are being disbanded from schools.

Christianity (and different non-Islamic religions) are unlawful in Saudi Arabia. yet that isn't the norm; maximum predominantly-Islamic international locations do no longer outlaw different religions. i comprehend for a certainty that there are Christian churches in a minimum of those international locations: Iran Iraq Egypt Pakistan So i think the question could desire to be restated as: could desire to the U. S. be basically as restrictive because of the fact the worst of the international places? I could desire to think of no longer. As a rustic that values freedom, i do no longer think of we could put in a limit like that without being hypocritical. confident, Islamic international places (a minimum of a few of them) could be a gaggle of illiberal *****; does that advise we could desire to consistently be basically as undesirable?

What are you talking about? Muslims don't care about other peoples symbols. The only thing I saw on the news was about a Jewish Rabbi who demanded an airport to take down its Christmas trees because they refused to put up a menorah. He was going to take court action against them.

No that only happens in America and England to Christian symbols.
Everywhere else in the world they stand up for what they believe in and have Cahunnas.

Of course not. In America, we are bowing down to the Muslim faith in many ways, giving away our free speach, and free thought to pander to the politically correct. We as a culture no longer stand up for the constitution, and we are losing it. It is just the way it is. We are complacent, and our government knows just how to manipulate us into bleeding the soul from the original purpose of America. Not to worry though, your grandchildren will think the way they live is the best way to live. But they will not even know what freedom really is or what liberties we and our parents threw away from them.

No they don't ...
In fact in Islamic countries you can be jailed for having a Bible in public.
