Best analogy I can come up with.
ANOTHER religion with its own prophet and its own version of Jesus. There are probably more than that, but I picked the one that Americans would immediately recognize.

How many Americans would AUTOMATICALLY speak of "the Prophet Joseph Smith" and automatically censor any disrespectful reference to him?
How many Americans would AUTOMATICALLY treat the Book of Mormon as a holy book and punish any disrespectful handling of a copy?

And yet Mormons are consistently among our best citizens, and Moslems are usually among our enemies.
