Last Sunday, Catholics going to Holy Mass in London’s Westminster Cathedral were confronted by Christophobic Muslims, carrying hate posters such as “Pope go to hell,” “Benedict watch your back,” “May Allah curse the Pope,” “Jesus is the slave of Allah, “Islam will conquer Rome,” and the like. An English blogger has some photos here. What must one make of these Muslim protestors? Do they look like self-assured people?

It looks as if Muslims cannot cope with an open society and the modern globalized world. Should we interpret their aggression – the result of their inability to cope with the world – as a token of strenght, or rather as a sign of inherent weakness – a sign, as Dr Elst says, that the decline of Islam has visibly begun?

How should one interpret a society that allows such barbarians and thugs to wander around jumping up and down issuing such death threats? Is this collective primal scream therapy? Theater of the absurd snuff films? National geographic anthropology exhibit? Neo-primitivist chic? Have people become so jaded that threats to commit murder and anti-Christian/anti-Western genocide seem routine now in the streets of London and Paris?

Or has the moral relativism and self-loathing of Western liberals and secular humanists run full circle?

It will be interesting to see how long civilization as a mutual suicide pact lasts.

Here: The West vs. Islam: Will the West win?

The West has shoved Christ out of the center, only to find the devil more than willing to step in.
