Forgetting the remote episodes that confronted Christians with Muslims along history, this work seeks to focus on the current presence of Islamic community in the EU, analyzing the attitude adopted by European society towards these groups. In this sense, we must observe the important evolution from the initial paternalism to the subsequent indifference that in recent years has turned into a mutual animosity. This situation is confirmed by several circles, which consider the advancement of Islam as a threat to the EU. Therefore, following this argument we can confirm that for a large part of the European people, Muslim values have no place in Western secular tradition.
