This is a natural reaction when your world collapses because of people vastly different than you.
The ones who are eager to integrate are not a problem. The ones who want to bring their culture and put it in opposition to the one of their host country are a problem.
I am French and a militant atheist.
My two best friends are:
1. a devout catholic and we discuss how our views are bad and how the other is wrong in his head. And then go for a beer.
I support the fact that we are culturally Judeo-Christians and therefore part of my traces go to the small village church. This is life, and I protest that but know that nobody is going to cut my head for that.
2 a 2nd gen Muslim who meets with his family for their celebrations but otherwise does not care too much except that he is pissed off because when there is an issue it is always presumed that the culprit is Muslim. To what I say that if they did not have the arguably bad habit to cut heads when someone shows their god in underwear it would be better, we argue for a moment and go with nr 1 for a beer and juice for nr 2.
I know them and their friends for years and we are uber cool with each other.
If everyone was more tolerant and less aggressive about their beliefs we would not have extreme right parties
Why in horror?
