0% of Lebanese like Jews? Yet Christians and Muslims are approved of by 90%+ margins?

Russia - 55% approval of Muslims after Chechnya?

Well that's not any wackier than the Lebanon numbers and the US ones are higher after 9/11. Hey, look at those German numbers! Hmmm dazzleman, what was that crap again about how leftists love Islam and political correctness means loving Islam?
Yeah, I've wondered about that figure too ... and of course wondered when it would be brought up.
Probably reflects a relative lack of political correctness, or something about the wording of the German-language version of the question.
Actually though, the other two German figures don't quite square with what I'd have expected either ... hm.




According to this Pew poll, nearly 10% of the population of the Anglo Saxon countries believe Christianity is the most violent religion -- greater than either atheist France or Russia, or caste-riddled India. The only accounting for that figure is the cumulative effect of political correctness, which is uniquely an English-language phenomenon.

Its probably because of wife-beaters, who largely are "religous".

About 10% of Indians are Muslim so there's more to it than that.

India is 20% Muslim actually.

In fact, India's President is a Muslim and thier top actors are Muslims too.

I think what increases Pakistan's tolerance score for Christianity is that thier best cricketer was a Christian.

To all the people who were commenting on the statistics in various countries looking odd: What do you thnk of Lebanon? Do they actually get along that well now?

About 10% of Indians are Muslim so there's more to it than that.

India is 20% Muslim actually.

In fact, India's President is a Muslim and thier top actors are Muslims too.

I think what increases Pakistan's tolerance score for Christianity is that thier best cricketer was a Christian.

And that the Hindu extremists who hate them so much hate Christians too.

As a matter of fact, I think this is the first time in post-colonial Indian history that two non-Hindus have held the President/PM post.

Manmohan Singh - PM - Sikh
Abdul Kalam - President - Muslim.
