That is interesting. I am surprised that Muslims rank that high considering there doesn't seem to be a backlash from the Islamic community around the world (or even in the US that I'm aware of) against ISIS (now just IS) and the incredible violence they are perpetrating upon anyone who doesn't agree with them. However we, as a general population, seem to be tolerant in general and that is good to see.
My money is on: the rating for the Jews would be higher if they were queried about Israeli Jews. Maybe also on Conservative or Orthodox American Jews. But the vast majority of American Jews seem to be "Jews In Name Only" (there must be a good acronym for that). It's only our political elites and Europeans who suffer from anti-semitism. And the MSM propagates that viewpoint. I'd also think the low Mormon rating is due to B-HO's smear campaign against Romney.

Go ahead and call the ISIS. Those savages don't get to name themselves.
