It is already very heavily fortified (to deal with such nutters) . Have you seen the pikes the popes army carry to!

I am only waiting for our Archbishop to announce that he will visit our Muslim leaders, wringing his hands and apologising to try and distance the Church of England from the Popes "inexcusable quote"?/?. Perhaps this wil then go a long way to pacify our "peace loving Muslims".

Intelligent Muslims ! Is this an Oxymoron ?

Intelligent brionon!? Definitely an oxyMoron.

The problem is, if you give attention to a naughty child, and capitulate to it when it has a tantrum, you are storing up big trouble for yourself in the future.
Muslims, as a whole, must learn not to be so selfish and hysterical and unreasonable. And for our part, we need to start standing firm and refusing to bow down to yet another Islamic demand.
Christianity had a violent and oppressive past. No denying it. But the problem in the world today is Islam.
I predict that for the next few saturdays London will come to a standstill so that the Toddlers can march and scream and burn effigies - all because they hate to be labelled as aggressive.

No, the problem NikkiB is, that posters- like the one before you-, have started generalizing about a whole group of people again and by doing that, you are making your opinions biased and your argument pretty weak.

Yes, its an over-reaction on the muslims part- not All, but the ones who are rising to the bait. The bait being all this media frenzy surrounding the speech. Don't forget that it was the media that was purposely selective about publicizing certain parts of the Pope's speech to begin with, and not wholly within context either.
I'm not trying to justify the response/reaction generated, just showing you its not all black and white
