While not all societies with significant numbers of Muslims have significant percentages of the population who favor death to people who leave Islam, the percentages actually vary greatly, a great many predominantly Muslim societies have lots of people who do feel this way.
For example, more than 30% of the population of Bangladesh feels this way, and as a result a number of prominent atheist bloggers and publishers have been killed by Islamists there in the last couple of years.
While not all Islamic societies share this norm, a great many do, and that norm is incompatible with a modern, pluralistic society.
