The End of England?
Investors Business Daily ^ | 6/4 | Wil H

Posted on 06/04/2008 10:16:24 AM PDT by Wil H

Two Christian preachers in Britain have been told that trying to spread the gospel to Muslims is a hate crime. It's another sign that much of England has given up on being England.

British media are reporting that Arthur Cunningham and Joseph Abraham, American evangelical ministers who've been living in Great Britain for years, were told by a police community support officer to "stop handing out gospel leaflets in a predominantly Muslim area of Birmingham."....

Funny - I was reading about Oliver Cromwell and the Covenanters over the weekend. These jackasses wouldn’t have lasted 20 minutes in their world.

God bless these men.

Christian missionaries spread the gospel in loving and peaceable ways.

Muslim jihadists force their religion by the sword and beheading.

Who is committing the “hate crime”?

Yup, you can already be prosecuted in the UK for questioning the gay lifestyle.

You don't have to say anything hateful - just question it's validity, or comment on the health hazards, and you are in court..

Is the opposite also a hate crime? Spreading Islam? How about owning a black dog? Marrying your 13 year old niece? Interrupting an honor killing? Selling bacon?

Hey England! It may be time for a revolution.......

Both England and France are by degrees coming under Islamic control. For the last several years both governments have increasingly imposed Islamic based sanctions and punitive measures on the non-islamic population. Where Western nations are increasingly hostile to anything “Christian,” they readily embrace Islamic beliefs and practices and ensure government accommodation and support.

Sooner or later the English are going to run these invaders into the sea. And I hope it is sooner.

I hope you’re right, but I don’t see it happening. The British government, by all apperances, is TRYING to Islamicize the UK. They pass one measure after another that coddles these booger eating savages. In the end there may be violence, but the British government will probably side with Muslims (everyone else being a ‘hater’). And I can’t imagine what the average Brit will use to drive these people out or defend themselves with. Garden shovels? They have no guns.

With every storm cloud there is a silver lining. When (notice not IF) Islam takes over the U.S.A., the first to go will be the gays and lesbians, then all media employees, then all Democrat/Liberals, and only then will they begin to attack Christians. They will accomplish what we have been unable or unwilling to do about the moral decay in this country.

I don't agree. I think they will attack Christians first, as seems to be happening now, because the Christians are the only ones who would actually stand up to them and try to protect the others.

It already has with the restrictions placed on the mission work of the Westboro Baptist Church.

"I think they will attack Christians first, as seems to be happening now, because the Christians are the only ones who would actually stand up to them and try to protect the others."

Muslims are politically predatory, they will cull the weak (vulnerable) from the herd first.

In this case, I think that means those who are a voice against them but who are alone, and indeed this has already begun, with Michael Savage. Robert Spencer, Srdija Trifkovic and others who speak out about what Islam really means, are in constant danger of being threatened into silence or sued into oblivion. Once voices like those are silenced by claiming that they are purveying "hate speech", then they will come after the rest of us -- and our government is likely to politically complicit in this under the banner of "multi-culturism".

Mark Steyn is so right about Europe...

He’s so right he’s a victim of his own predictions, and ironocally, in this continent.
