Saudis arrest 12 Filipinos and a priest in raid on Catholic Mass, charge them with proselytizing

So, non-Muslims can't even have a private prayer service inside a building in Saudia Arabia but we're expected to let them build mega-mosques anywhere they want in the name of 'tolerance'?

When people move to other countries they need to live under those laws.
In the ME, religion IS the legal law. There is no separation.

This is NOT Saudi Arabia. We are a SECULAR governed country. They are a RELIGIOUS governed country.

That is the eventual goal of muslims---to make every country subject to shariah law. If they had their way, the US would be like Saudi Arabia.

Then you have a stupid country like Germany.

Despite an Imam( preaching at a Mosque in Germany ) being wanted on terrorist charges in Spain, they refuse to extradite him.

It's a fine line to walk.
Do you get proactive and start squashing legitimate rights "just in case" ?
Do you wait until a certain threshold is passed ?

At what point is it deemed dangerous where it should be legally stopped ?

IMO I think France made a good move in their banning of the Burka.
We don't have that problem here in the US but France did have a problem that they felt got out of hand.

Well the big difference is the US is founded and its way of life is religious freedom. Saudi Arabia is not.

Yeah, but how about a little "tolerance" on their part? We always hear them screaming at us to be more tolerant of EVERYTHING they do. Can't a few Christian servants get together to privately celebrate mass? The West bends over backward for Islamic expansion in the name of "tolerance". There's a mosque in Vatican City but Muslims won't give an inch in the name of tolerance. Tolerance is something for infidels. When they say 'tolerance' they really mean 'submission'.
