It's a principle tenet of Christianity as well. When Christianity finally decided to seperate Church and State, "Render unto" was there. The problem with Islam is that the push there is exactly the opposite. They can never separate them without going against the Koran.

Back off, Nadine. I'm an atheist and agnostic on alternate days. I am definitely not a believer and this is well known. I have engaged in person-to-person debates with Christians which made this perfectly clear. I have NEVER had my life, livelihood, well-being, or anything else threatened by them. Ever. The impression I've gotten is Christians are quite willing to live with freedom of religious belief. If nothing else, they don't want someone shoving a brand of Christianity they don't like down their throats.
