so ugh what's the big deal? :S man honestly I think if it's Muslims people get bent out of shape so badly so fast...if some 'accomadtions' were made for chrstians or something it won't be an issue since that's the majority..Hypocracy at it's finest

No accomodations are made for Christians. Or at least it is rare as they don't tend to pull out the discrimination card....as frequently.

Really now? Descrimination exists my friend.....especially depending on where you are it can be very extreme..I know of an Inidian family who got their house destroyed by thrown rocks cuz they 'looked' muslim..I know many who didn't land the job they deserve cuz they are muslim...I know how many institutes have we won't accomadate other religions mentality in the western nations.....I know some places who won't let muslim workers do their prayers on time even...you know why it may not seem to be the case for the Christians? Cuz these ARE christian nations..and imagine a scenario where there is a rule in the Bible about dress codes that's out of the norm, you honestly think UK and USA and other nations in the western world won't accomadate this? what Nonsense....it's their religion, their faith, if someone feels it's only fair they get accomadated for that then so be it...the lack of tolerance for other religions is horrible in quite a few so called developed nations and that is reality..same goes for sexuality and to a lesser extent gender
I know that these acts might lead to some seggregation in a society, however intolerance will lead to more severe seggregation and mistrust
ps: Not a Muslim nor am I a christian for the record

Do you know how many Christians can't get a proper jobs in some muslims contries by the same reasons? If I go with my wife in Iran for example she needs to wear hijab or she go in jail and nobody ask about her religion/feelings. Do you think that in Saudi Arabia they will stop selling beef, cos there are indian minority in their country? There are even cities you can't get in if you are not muslim. Show me one city in the cristians country where you can't enter if you are not christian! If you go to foreign country you need to conform with its way of life, not the other way.

Well i think you're ignoring many muslim/islamic countries where this stuff DOESN'T matter so much.
Countries like Malaysia, and plenty of other countries, like Indonesia, are very open and democratic. Ofcourse, we are talking more likely in major cities, rather than the country, but tell me if this is any different from certain parts of the United States.

JAKARTA, Indonesia -- Father Ricardo walked gingerly across the charred remains of a church that recently was torched by a band of Muslim fanatics. In a macabre scene, burned pews, crushed stained glass windows, tattered vestments, a communion chalice and a few torn pages from a hymnal dotted the floor.
"It's a nightmare. My Lord, when is it going to stop? Where is this all going to lead? " he said softly again and again, in great despair.

In this Tuesday, June 29, 2010 photo, an Indonesian Muslim man looks at a banner with a picture of a young, bespectacled Christian man and the words: "Death penalty for Andreas Dusly Sanau ... , " in front of a mosque at Bekasi on the outskirts of Jakarta, Indonesia. (AP Photo/Achmad Ibrahim)
Very open and tolerant indeed....
Note: this picture is made only 15km away from the capital
