Secular values


As an Atheist I am really getting quite fed up with all the religious upheaval and the special pleading by the Muslim religious group.
In what is a secular society we seem to bend over backwards to maintain affable relations with certain groups who have a mind set a million miles from the bulk of the inhabitants of this country.
We have to apparently accept and even pretend to understand the weird observance of Religious figures who lived hundreds of years ago and whose followers are currently reaping havoc across the world because of a silly video produced in America. Enough is enough we simply don't believe in the relevance of your faith to the modern world and whilst we, unlike you, are willing to accept your right to believe in the Prophet, we don't, and demand that you stop behaving in this way.
If you feel aggrieved then go and live in the country,countries at the source of the religion and leave us alone and in peace to get on with our secular way of life which, incidentally includes accepting "criticism" of much of what we stand for but allows others to hold and speak those views without our turning out on the street, rioting.
