    Compared to South American and Africa, yes, most western countries are very secular societies nowadays and organized christianity has heavily declined, even a lot of places in the USA are rather secular nowadays.

    I’d argue that anti-muslim violence in western countries is motivated more by general xenophobia and racism than religion, similar to how German Nazis weren’t motivated by deep religiosity when they genocided Jews.
