I am not comfortable with the "only when we have bells ringing on Churches in Muslim countries" argument: it seems to run contrary to Christ's teachings of love for ones neighbour and turning the other cheek. Personally, I do not want an Islamic call to pray issued out of loud-speakers but I am not in favour of them being flatly denied based on prejudice.

With love in Christ

Dear Alex,

That Christianity still exists is by reason that we don't always turn the other cheek! Because if we do so, the muslim world already conquered Europe long ago.

And 'freedom of religion' is okay, but not in a way that offends other religions.

In Christ, Nicolaj
