Is there more tolerance and respect in America for all religions and races comapred with Europe?

Question

What does it goes on to show that American newspapers didnt publish the controversial Danish Cartoons which almost all the Europeans newspapers did?

Answer 1

Just like America, Europe is not all the same. In New York City or Chicago, I would say most religions are well tolerated because they are prevalent. Go to rural Arkansas or South Dakota, and not so much. The Danish newspaper that published the cartoons, Jyllands-Posten, is Denmark's largest circulation daily newsaper, according to Wikipedia, but it is a conservative newspaper. And they are not published in Copenhagen, which would be much more liberal.  In a sense they are FOX news of Denmark. And if you look at FOX news race baiting and religion bating people about Barrack Obama, you can get an idea of what they were up to.

Answer 2

Its really too bad!  We have some races and religions that we are forbidden to even talk about more or less make fun of!

Europe is way far ahead of us on that issue!

Answer 3

no, we don't like people to try and shove their beliefs down our throats, is all.

Answer 4

To many variables missing in your Q: like, depends on how much someone is shoving their religion in my face. It also depends on the religion it self. Like, is a Mormon more offensive than a Muslim who maybe less offensive than a Buddhist. Then there is the general education of an individual to have an open mind to accept things they are not familiar with but be able to realize that they are out there.

Answer 5

The only religion that America has embraced more than Europe in my experience is Judaism (and that is only in SOME parts of the country.)

I think that America didn't publish those cartoons doesn't mean anything but that we didn't want to provoke an attack.  The decision wasn't made out of respect.  South Park depicted Muhammad before the cartoon in the Danish paper ever came about.  There was a second episode of South Park where comedy central did edit his image out (because of the Danish controversy.)

Answer 6

Not really

Answer 7

Tolerance and respect for different religions in America? I wish.

Should anyone mention that they are Muslim, they're automatically labeled a "Terrorist."

Other religions such as Buddhism are said to be anti-christ.

Should anyone be non-christian, it's implied that they would ALL burn in h**l.
