[James C. Bennett]

Are you aware that a large part of the Middle East, now Muslim, was once Christian? So too, Asia Minor.

[metmom]

Yes. Was.

And Europe is now becoming islamic, because they’ve embraced atheism and rejected Christianity.

Atheism will NEVER stop islam.

Are you aware that a large part of the Middle East, now Muslim, was once Christian? So too, Asia Minor.

Yes, many of us are aware of that.
And your point is?

Islam was not spread by missionaries or kind deeds; and after Sobieski (pbuh) kicked muslim butt big time, the muslim expansion came to a halt.

History is full of contradictions.
How can a small geographic area of the world be known both as the "cradle of civilization," and among the most backward, primitive, murderous, cruel and irrational culture of the 21st Century?
