"There exist the "fanatic" Muslims — to use a bad word — just as there are also fanatic Christians; they have terrible ideas, which I absolutely do not agree with. But we always say: This is the price to pay for religious freedom, to let everyone speak. But then it's up to us to work toward necessary moderation, having a nonpartial vision of what religion is, and to do our work."
