Where Muslims are free

[Blessed Ramadan billboard next to I-78E outside Newark, NJ] I am pretty sure the United States is the only country in the world where all Muslims of all stripes are free to observe, practice and live their religion as they see fit.

As far as I know, all predominantly Muslim countries have an official version of Islam and deviations from that version are not condoned and, in some cases, not even really tolerated at all.

Most of the world's Muslims either live in countries run by dictators or authoritarian regimes.

Just something to keep in mind when thinking about global (in)security.
