I don't see an open acceptance of Muslims (or adherents of Islam), witches, warlocks, or even atheists for that matter. Just as there are atheists whom find a belief in god unacceptable, there are also religious people that find nonbelievers, or believers in other gods unacceptable (often traveling around the world to convert people).

I however hold one fundamental principle that is uniform- there is nothing outside of the self or our experience, and anyone that believes in Cupid, Zeus et.al, is delusional. But, most importantly, I don't have an inkling of disdain for anyone just because I find it incomprehensible. I love all people the same.
