I should also add that I have no problem sharing the public square with other religions (before someone raises that point). I know Christianity will survive competition, and if I expect to be able to freely discuss my beliefs, I should respect the right of others to discuss theirs. I may not like an Islamic prayer and wouldn’t participate, but I’d listen respectfully or even use the time to quietly pray to my Lord.

I wouldn’t, I’d pass gas and make Oinking sounds until they left.

You would be okay with town council meetings opening with an Islamic call to prayer asking Allah to bless the meeting?
