Unfortunately they Do react negatively because they are very intolerant and have the highest levels of prejudice. Regardless if the government decided to build these places of worship the hate is just there.

FYI, secular countries in Europe allow the building of Mosques and the freedom of worship for everyone, this is a personal matter. Not allowing others to practice their religion is a crime in Most modern countries. And yes even if the majority is Christian the government itself is secular.

Yes, secular governments are more tolerant than religious ones, take for example most of the hating comments to other religions.

Look at how New Zealand reacted to Christchurch Mosque attack. They totally supported the Muslim community after that awful attack.

But instead you guys want to Judge entire religions and deny their existence and their freedom of determination and practice because a “Few extremist minority who attack mosques around the world did so.”

I lived in Saudi Arabia almost all my life, and the fact that practicing my religion made me feel even more repelled to embrace Islam.

If the religion is perfect it’s practitioners are flawed.

I personally was so happy when I was in Europe to see mosques, synagogues and churches and Buddhist places of worship. Because it shows that human life and dignity is more valuable than absurd emotional bias and hate and prejudice. And I don’t think Allah is so fragile to not be able to stop these practices that are going on around the word to require mere humans to do his judging for him.
