It's not natural to Islam at all to respect other religions or cultures,... only bigots portray Islam that way, bigots from within and bigots from without.
Oh really? It's bigoted to "portray" Islam as not respecting other religions? Do you have any familiarity with the concepts of Sharia? jihad? dhimmis? jizra? The historical patterns of the limited non-Muslim worship permitted in Muslim countries, or, as we see in prominent examples like Saudi Arabia, not permitted at all? All of which are firmly supported in mainstream Islamic jurispredence, the Koran and the Hadith?
Or is it "bigoted" to notice any of these things? because that would spoil your notions of perfect harmony and tolerance?
Islam defines itself as the last, final revelation of God's word. It proclaims that it is the duty of everyone to submit to that word and to MAKE everybody else submit to that word - as the Koran says, to fight the unbelievers until they submit or pay jizra. That is the core of Islam.
If you feel "respected" being compelled to become a Muslim or being compelled to pay an extra poll tax to be allowed to live as a second class citizen, a dhimmi, be my guest. I don't.
