[Notwithstanding]

she denies the bedrock of the West (Christ)
while decrying the collapse of the culture

she may have good ideas, but her work is the perfect example of reason without faith

fides et ratio: they go together - reason is a gift from God

[Siobhan]

There is no West without Christ.

Without Christ there are merely pagan tribes to be conquered as once they were in time past.

[John Lenin]

But the Church, she says, is not able — or worse, not willing — to defend Christianity. Fallaci accuses the Church of helping the expansion of the "Islamic empire," lobbying for more Muslims to come to Europe. She points out that Christianity offers its churches as shelters to Muslim immigrants, who immediately turn them into mosques, as it has happened repeatedly in France and Italy. It continuously apologizes for the Crusades, but never expects an apology for what Muslims are doing now to Christians in Sudan or Indonesia.
