Frankly I don't think that's true, Islam is mentioned plenty in the public sphere and has been mentioned on here plenty (I would hazard, more than Christianity) over the years.

The reason Christiantiy is CURRENTLY mentioned a lot is that Christianity in the west has until recently been a very measured/moderate religion but there are recently quite clear signs of a resurgence of strong evangelical / fundamentalist Christian views and organisations.

We ignore them at our peril... fundementalist christianity is ****ing scary.

I'd also point out that at the end of the day, Judaism, Christianity and Islam are all Abrahamic religions. Different flavours of the same crisps.
