Oh and we all know how well that worked out. They were attacked by every neighbor.
Ok, I will give you the church bells (in some countries, particularly the ones where churches are allowed). But please don’t pretend they are welcome govern themselves. Everthing goes indeed.
Suppose Muslim societies welcomed non-Muslims in the same way western socieities do with Muslims and there was a huge influx of non Muslims moving to Muslim lands (I know that is a big supposition, but stick with me).
With large numbers of non Muslims now in this Muslim society, surely their power and influence will grow (it's only natural after all). Does this new power mean they would earn the right to initiate western laws? Will they be allowed to wear their cultural clothes, produce and watch their cultural tv shows, movies and music? Will church bells ring throughout the land instead of being attacked? Will the Bible be sold in book stores? Heck, never mind their own set of laws, will they finally be allowed to participate in government?
dont be daft. firstly, i dont see the adhan ringing out in non muslim societies...period. Infact there was an uproar at the mere suggestion of one just last week. An it was an ugly one at that. So if your looking for a comparison, i suggest you take that one out.
secondly; as for the rest, fortunate or unfortunate, its pretty common already in muslim societies as it were. Iran, and Pakistan included. And i assure you it didnt require a large amount of aliens influx either.
