I only, and specifically, meant that the trouble you get for burning scripture is very different in Islam and Christianity.

They can believe what they want and live by their rules if they want. Just as others can disbelieve what they want and disrespect religious rules if they want. These rules have no power outside of their own bubble. It should be opt-in. At least it should be opt-out. But they must be optional.
