"but it does surprise me that places like Europe and Australia have had racial/cultural problems. "

What!!??

Nazis anyone?

That aside, these people are obviously overreacting.

I may sound callous and horrible, but I can't help but laugh at people who take themselves this seriously. And at the same time, if their faith is really as strong as they say, why would some infidel's opinion of their religion have such a profound effect on them?

This level of fervent belief has whole portions of the globe embroiled in, or on the edge of war.

I think people need to generally get over themselves. There is a certain nursery rhyme that served me pretty well as a kid.

Sticks and stones....

The nazis, I didn't forget about them, I realize there is always that arian point of view, I just thought Europe was a more liberal democratic society. Most of the people who live in Denmark work for the government or tourism, so I was thinking they deal with people on a more social level. I guess they are not comfortable with others coming in and breaking down their food chain (so to speak). That is usaully the problem of immigration is people are afraid they will lose their jobs and it's not all about culture. They hurt you though by mocking your culture.

Anyway, they over-react beacause they are so extreme, they can't think past it. There is not a religion out there that doesn't think they are the righteous, but at the sametime we know this about Muslims and still we use it to hurt them. Remember Salman Rushdie.
