i believe it depends on what christian group u are talking about

secular christians dont have any problem with secular muslims, and i think it's vice versa

but religious christians and zouzou ebbas will have a problem with muslims and vice versa

now the magic ingredient here is the ratio of seculars in each religion..

secular Christians represent less than 10% of the Christians!

but i talked about ratios

and 10% is too low an estimate for the nb of seculars in lebanese christians

here ask for a poll about civil marriage and having a purely presidential secular system country and see the results

then u will see what i am talking about when it comes to secular ratio between christians and muslims

apart from that, we shouldnt mix the usual types of communities christians and muslims have here, here muslim communities are mostly very generous and welcoming and few communities have taliban tendencies while christians communities on the whole are almost all doubtful of others and of themselves by nature.

but none of that translates into secular voting and secular pursuits

most muslims will only look for an internal solution when facing problems

while many but not all christians will be open minded enough about a solution to their problems from outside

'give me a secular country so we can end sectarianism'

let's have a poll about how many ppl support that and how many ppl still prefer to play the tribe wars games

as i said, i think the ratio will clearly show what i was originally talking about

not all communities have the same ratio of pro secular supporters

Islam doesn't teach us to hate Christians, I'm a religious Muslim but I don't have a problem electing a Christian.
