Islam is a totalitarian ideology at war with the west and it is incompatible with liberty. Islam is perfectly willing to use the democratic processes of the west to insert itself until it gains a moral or numerical advantage at which point they will introduce Sharia and your choice will be to convert or die. The secular west is not prepared to deal with the threat to our civilization due to insane multiculturalism which is ignorant or, worse, lying, about the unchanged patern of 13 centuries of Islamic Jihad aginst Christians and Jews.

I pray for a Pope realistic enough to confront the threat and to lead the west to sanity and to recognize we are not engaged in a war of terror but we are at war with Islam. And Islam is every bit the totalitarian ideology that Nazism and Communism was.

It is time we in the west woke-up and smelled the Frankinsence or else our headless bodies will be annointed with myrrh.

I can't remember the number of the last Crusade. What will this one be?

"I pray for a Pope realistic enough to confront the threat and to lead the west to sanity and to recognize we are not engaged in a war of terror but we are at war with Islam."

So? We better confront Islam as Christians confronted Rome as a better idea. Those that mean a 'military war' - that went out with the tide in the Old Testament. The realistic Pope has already pointed the way for the West - do not practice birth control, homosexuality and abortion. Jesus Rules.

I agree with your assessment of Islam. It is very totalitarian in nature, more so than other religions. I'd rather die than convert!
