I think the CSM is exaggerating the relevance of religious debates in Europe (but then, what else could be expected from a magazine with "Christian.." in its title?). The debates that the CSM refers to are about unconstitutional activities and dangers of certain religious splinter groups rather than about the relations between religions and secularism in general. In this sense it's also strange that the CSM article omits Judaism in its first phrase: "Across Europe, the conflicting currents of secularism, Christianity, and Islam are compelling Europeans to wrestle with their values as never before."
