Same reason my mother in law in Thailand converted. “It’s just easier this way”
Because once they convert, whenever they say something stupid, nobody will be able to comment negatively without offending the Muslims.
That and they love the fashion of only having to have one way to dress.
Is anyone else having trouble accessing the Daily Mail for this article? Only the top portion is displayed. As I try to scroll down to read it a Google page keeps appearing saying they can’t find find a newsbucket site!! And no, I’m not clicking on a link, just the down arrow.
I hope we'll agree but I think your wording is incorrect
It is not a failure of Christianity, it is a failure of people who call themselves Christian.
Once a church (denomination) takes down those fences of biblical behavior, that church or denomination ceases to be Christian. The anglicans in England for example, haven't been Christian in decades
Yes, indeed. I am afraid, Britain is lost, with America right behind.
Outside of Christianity, where salvation is through grace and not by works lest any man should boast, all religions are merit based. Islam tends to be appealing in that the way to “save yourself” is made very clear through its seemingly endless list of laws. It’s human nature to want to be good enough to earn our way to heaven. It’s also humanly impossible. It takes humility to admit that one is a hopeless sinner destined for hell without the gift of salvation through Christ. Islam is a prideful religion.
“It’s like being gay. It’s become an avenue of entitlement.”
Or, as I have thought for a while, to some (not all)something of a rebel shock value to get attention.
Only trouble is, the little experiment could end up wrecking their lives, or even getting them killed when they figure out they don’t like it after all.
attention seeking. shock value.
>>> And, IIRC, the numbers leaving islam (lower case intended) are greater than those converting to it.
would u have a link handy of this finding? TIA
I dunno. I think these are sick self-loathing women who want to flaunt their contempt for the west and its heritage such as Christianity. What about Catholicism or the conservative reformed churches over there that still teach traditional morality? They convert to the religion of the enemyt knowing full well of what is going on in the world.
It has to be inbreeding or a brain virus.
That's it in a nutshell.
my guess is they got an itch that regular Brit men ain’t interested in scratching
same thing here in flyover America with ugly white girls going outside the norm for satisfactions
which reminds me..back in college days...ugly white girls at Ole Miss went with foreign Arab students
till one wanted to take her home to Saudi Arabia and she refused so he stabbed her to death out by Sardis lake...that sorta chilled the Desert Fever in the air
that was very good...i bet it sailed over many a head
IMO, the Church of England has not been defended by those who are supposed to defend the faith.
strong stuff well said...you inspire me to behave better
(and in a better way than some here who have tried..thank you)
“Sort of sad commentary on the state of Christianity in the UK when women looking for spirtuality go to Islam.”
Many parts of the USA have the same problem, that most of the “churches” are godless, empty shells. Christians who want to practice the religion 7 days a week need to seek out the handful of real Christians in the church who want to join them.
In contrast to the 5 prayers a day of Muslims, many churches teach that being a Christian means nothing more than going to church on Sunday and throwing a lot of money into the offering plate. (The ancient Christian prayer cycle of the “Daily Office” is forgotten or ignored.)
It goes back to the principle that corrupted, liberal versions of things don’t sell. People want the genuine article, and only real, spiritual Christianity will win souls.
Some people have had changes in behavior, hostility, agitation, depressed mood, suicidal thoughts or actions while practicing ISLAM. Some people had these symptoms when they began practicing ISLAM, and others developed them after several weeks, months, or years of worship. If you, your family, or caregiver notice agitation, hostility, depression, or changes in behavior, thinking, or mood that are not typical for you, or you develop suicidal thoughts or actions, anxiety, panic, aggression, anger, mania, abnormal sensations, hallucinations, paranoia, or confusion, stop practicing ISLAM and see a minister, priest, or rabbi right away. Also tell your doctor about any history of depression or other mental health problems before practicing ISLAM, as these symptoms may worsen while practicing ISLAM.
Why do some women propose to serial killers in prison?
It’s a sick fad, just like so many middle aged woman deciding they are suddenly lesbians.
Oh to be rich shallow and bored....
