the Western world are far more secular than this.
But the religion itself is totally xenophobic. Thank god it doesn't dominate the world.

well yeah i agree with all you said basically
but at the same time all religions are to some degree xenophobic, no? christians and muslims both believe that if you're not part of their religion you will go to hell? i mean i guess there are exceptions (in islam, at least) but you get what i'm saying.
