You really have a chip, don't you DS. Suggest you remove it with a chill pill and stop making inflamatory statements such as 'The Brits hating the muslims'.

Being Brit, I can tell you we are the most ecumenically tolerant country in the world. Thats why there are churches, synagogues, mosques, temples and every other denominatory house of worship sitting on the same street. Show me that in Saudi. Or Dubai?

Our open political system, freedom of speech, freedom of thought and respect for the rights of the individual are what allows someone, anyone, to say what they think and feel without fear of retribution. As Jean Paul Sartre once said: "Monsieur, I may not agree with what you say, but I shall fight to the death to protect your freedom to say it."

If you worship your God in peace and with respect for other citizens, then we will respect it. But if you start trying to stir up hatred or spread inflamatory, innacurate and extremist propaganda...we will shoot you down in flames. Muslim, christian, bhuddist or zoroastrian: Makes no difference, just don't try and ram your own personal narrow minded thoughts down anyone elses throat.

Be good. Be fair. Be nice.

I would have to reply on DK:

I have Brit business partners, one of them is Muslim who told me: "We have more religious freedom in the UK that all the Arab countries combined!". I trust him and believe that what he said is true.

But some people here think and behave differently from their fellows back home and hence the intercultural indifference. And it's sad that this is the outcome of an immature and biased system that treats every one according to many aspects other than their competitiveness and qualifications.

We use the unfairness we're facing to put every one in a box and disregarding the fact that individual differences are much more than national similarities.

Thank you DK for being fair...

I'm also from the UK and it was not an issue but my view is biased because I was from an area (east london) where there was plenty of muslims. There are plenty of schools there which do not let muslim girls wear hijaab which to me is B.S but what can you do its their country, their laws.

As for this thread, bro if someone said that to me I would egg the b1tch and drive off lol.

The hijabb issue is one that is all across Europe, its an attempt not to have Muslims 'identified' and therefore picked on. Its the same for Sikhs and Jews.

i know there are chruches in dubai just googled it and http://www.google.ae/search?hl=en&q=chu ... ubai&meta= figured that there are roughly 6 to 7 churches in dubai alone. and according to this website http://www.state.gov/g/drl/rls/irf/2004/35510.htm there are 2 sikh temples one more in the way and one hindu temple. I guess you can say Muslims are tolerant as well.

I would be suprised to find a mosque or a temple in the vatican city and i guess thats the same for saudi.
