All it took was one Fatwa against Salmon Rushdie I think that just about covers it ... cowardice. As far as Christians are concerned, I think that their confidence is such that attempts to belittle their beliefs by irrelevant people are not considered to be worthy of response. Perhaps the typical irrational Muslim response is indicative of a lack of confidence and deeply felt self doubt.

There is some truth in that as well.
A believing Christian isn't going to go agnostic over an episode of The Simpsons. However, no one has really taken an intelligent look at why a lot of younger people could care less about religion and in some cases are devoutly anti-Christian.
As childish and perhaps as legitimately amusing as The Riverdance version of Catholic Heaven may have been, it could still be causing people to think of Christians as the bad guys. There has to be a civilized way of making Hollywood knock it off or at least tone it down a notch.
