"4)Islamic education? I got a secular education as most people here , unlike you i guess. We only have islamic schools for educating our Imams who work in mosques(equal to Priest) We can't let some radical sobs manipulate such a sensitive subject on our children. So we educate our own. Unlike many other "civilized" western country we have secularism in our constitution. (France was the only one in EU as i know). So as long as your governments stop supporting religious fanatics(like Fettullah Gülen in USA or major islamic players against Turkey who reside in Germany) for their political advantages we don't have a problem with any of the religions.

But of course we are against radical ideology of any sort.

So this makes my answer ----> Mostly No."

So let's simply tell facts. In your secular country where your wonderful schools are so much better than the rest of western education you have no problem in murdering father andrea santoro, Hrant dink, going beserk when the pope arrives, murder other christians brutally and torturing them.

your secular, modern and intelligent people have the time to rally for stupid things but not a single apology for the murder of the above people.

In our non secular western lands, none of your IMAMS has been murdered ...

So show us the fruits of your "secular" education. Because we only see rotten tomatoes.
