Its not the Uk where christians have had to put up with their faith being marginised and treated with contempt by our own people, muslims revere Christ as a prophet and would feel just the same when they hear his name being taken and used and abused by many

You are entitled to your opinion, but I think it is wrong to suggest that the Muslims in question are right to want a firmer punishment of this woman.
Just because we don't all wear religion like a badge doesn't mean that we don't live christian lives. I am not aware that you need to be in a church to pray.....and can it be acceptable for
any religion to call for the life of a person for such a thing.
Muslims in this country believe that the treatment being meted out to this woman is wrong. These people have taken almost 3 months to be offended by the action of this woman....and it was the children who named the bear....these are muslim children, so surely if the teacher was unaware of the fact that this was wrong, surely the children, who are indoctrinated in this faith from birth would know that it was wrong.
