Past tense, I note.
Great Article... Europeans can't blame Bush or the Americans or even Martians about that coming fate (hopefully not) if they keep being passive about Islam... they should act now while they still have the majority...
Ummm....so which is it? Are they on the rise or in decline?
Europe is losing this war.
I hope not...
Islam knows it is a lie, because Paul wrote that God has written His law in our hearts, so that we have no excuse.
I agree with the author's premise that much of the bluster and violence of the Muslims is directed at the subjects under the yoke of Islam's boot. They dare not hope for help from the West, so they must remain slaves to Muhammad's Death Cult.
Islam is in decline, but Europe is declining faster?
Islam is in decline with 1 billion plus and growing?
Looks like we will be getting millions of more refugees. One could make the case that France Politically is already lost. Italy and Spain will be followed by Germany where the skinheads will probably put up a good fight. Poland and England could survive isolated again, but Poland will probably be stabbed in the back as Europe is carved into two halves reminiscent of WWII. The main problem of course will be the nuclear weapons. France has a few nuclear submarines, which really should be viewed as hostile towards the west politically.
Europe is in decline (and denial) because it has allowed the Muslim murderers to kill what was once the foundation and fountain of civilization, art, literature (arguable, I concede) and grand architecture. If Islam is in decline, no one will know it for millenia because reasonable public figures continue to cave to the public tantrums performed on cue by "angry" Muslims incapable of handling anything that appears to be a "slight" against their "religion".
When an institution such as Islam is unable to contend with an "outsider" like the Pope holding up a mirror to them and quoting the 600 year-old words of a Byzantine Emperor and, rather than respond with introspection they respond with violence (the very act of which only confirms that nothing has changed in the 600 years since the Emperor uttered those words), there is a problem. And, that problem is with Islam, itself. This religion, like an ancient stopped clock, has frozen itself in a period of time that is over 1200 years out of step with the rest of the world. Its practitioners are, by and large, poor and ignorant, and resent the fact that the rest of the world has passed them by. Many of them are "educated" only in what a madrassah wants them to know aabout the Koran. They are, in every aspect, the product of their civilization and environment. This is not to suggest that I feel any sympathy for them, only to emphasize that it is Islam, itself, that is at the root of today's evil, because Islam cannot and will not adapt to the modern world, unlike Judaism and Christianity and other religions around the world.
He is using the following theory - A light bulb burns its brightest just before it fails.
And yes, people who cannot handle criticism are typically the kind of people who really need to be criticized. They are in denial. Just like the Clinton Fascists tried to deny the 'Path to 911'. The main problem however is that once a society or civilization becomes nuclear capable, it apparently wont ever go away. Witness the Russian Chekists. The best hope, assuming Islam is or will go fully nuclear, is that Islam is reformed from within. Unfortunately, we have close to 1,300 years of proof that reformation will not happen on its own.

Russia - 1.27
Either "majority Muslim", or a "vast, open-air museum."
I'll bet on "majority Muslim".
It can't reform. It's whole basis is that state and religion are inseparable.
The truth is that the Christian faith is now growing faster. Look at the global south, Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Not only in new members to the Catholic Church, but the much more conservitive Anglican Church, ( the church that will in time suceed the ECUSA down the road ), and the Bible based evangelical churches. The dirty little secret is that up to 6 million Muslims leave Islam to become Christians. What we are seeing right now is a religion that just cannot cope with the 21st century.
Christanity, 2.1 billion, and growing.
"What we are seeing right now is a religion that just cannot cope with the 21st century. "
It means the Muslim religion.
Very true. Also explains why Marxism has failed during modern times. The 'state and religion' becomes one under Marxism.
There are literally thousands of religions on this planet. Which one may have gotten the whole story right is perhaps irrelevant. We need freedom of religion. It helps to define our cultures and helps to establish morals that in many cases are fairly good. When the state denies freedom of religion, we end up with a single state mandated moralistic view, a state religion.
Depends on how fast the MTV bomb is working.
