[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would the members of Abrahamic religions allow their sacred symbols, artifacts, and figures such as the cross, Jesus, Mohammad, Allah, Torah be trashed without speaking up about it or even take some offense with it?

Yes.  The entire Torah and all biblical Jewish figures, stories, texts, etc have been completely appropriated and reinterpreted (often radically, and sometimes in the service of antisemitism) by Christians of all types.  To a lesser but still considerable degree, Jewish stories, figures, etc were appropriated and reinterpreted by Islam.   Jewish stories, figures, etc have also been adapted by commercial popular culture.

Some stories, figures and concepts from Christianity were appropriated and reinterpreted by Islam.

Certain concepts of religious law, originating in Islam, were appropriated by early medieval Judaism.

Approaches to mysticism, and mystical practices went back and forth among the three Abrahamic religions in the middle ages and afterward.
