"They are to singled out for special treatment BECAUSE of their religion ?"

Please recall the Pope's warning concerning the "dictatorship of relativism". Nazism and Socialism both operate with the same nature as "religion". Even "atheism" becomes religious when pushed to the extreme of state enforcement and subsequent persecution of those worshiping the supernatural (i.e. Communism).

The errors of relativism demands equality of all religious thoughts and ideas. Why is this so erroneous?

One time, Europeans thought that the world was flat. We know better now. However, should politics push hard enough to reinstate such belief to be elevated to the same status of Truth, would we be obligated to not judge such an error?

Quis est verum? The errors of Nazism, Communism/Socialism, and Islam will take a back seat to Truth because these heresies have been rendered ineffective by historical example. They cannot compete with Truth since they aren't modeled after it.

When an American citizen seeks a position of special trust and confidence (like being a military officer), that individual gets a background check concerning his or her character. Questions searching if the individual is part of an organization or has ever participated in the destruction of the American government have to be answered. Islam, by its very nature, is against the American model of government. Those who fight for equality of the Islamic model (different from the inclusion of Muslims) are fighting the American Constitution.

Ironically, not even the majority of Muslims want America to change. They left their old country for a reason and probably didn't want it to follow them.

... and I would guess for at least some of them that would include the freedom to NOT be singled out because of their religion.
