They are desperate woman that want a man at any cost. I have known quite a few of those kind of women in my lifetime. I haven’t known any that converted to Islam, but they sure sold their souls.

“These liberals first do everything in their power to water down Christianity... and then once they have succeeded... convert to another religion that hasn’t been watered down.”

I agree totally. One reason is the rebellious Left attitude that everything in traditional America is bad, while anything opposed to it is good. “The enemy of their enemy is their friend”. So they end up supporting foreign religions, even when they teach the same Christian morality they hate.

“Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false himility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence.” Colossians 2:23

These women have the right idea, to submit themselves to God, and they are willing to give their all, but one is reconciled to God by the sacrifice of Christ on the cross, not by the works of the flesh.

“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’s truly amazing and disgusting at the same time. I see it as a simple rejection of Good for Evil.

I don't know much about the COE, but I do know that many denominations in the US have made choices that make them indefensible from a scriptural perspective. There is much idolatry, murder, adultery, pride and arrogance rampant not just in the congregants but within the leadership of many mainline denominations.

“I find this disturbing”.....
A world leader that understood what he was looking at.

Perhaps coming to a city near each of us:

A young Arab asks his father:
What is this odd hat that we are wearing?
It’s a “chechia” because in the desert it protects our heads from the sun!

And what is this type of clothing that we are wearing?
It’s a “djbellah.” In the desert it is very hot and it protects your body!

And what are these big shoes that we have on our feet?
These are “babouches,” which keep us from burning our feet when in the desert!

Tell me, papa...
Yes, my son?
... Why are we living in Dearborn, Michigan and still wearing all this cr@p?

Modernized Western media, education, and religion excoriates White Christians as the moral monsters of history, especially for anything that might favor group self-interest. Real Western history has been distorted and covered up by a series slanderous "black legends." The trend was started by Protestants targeting their Catholic forefathers but is now aimed at all Christians.

Western leaders wanted to achieve progress by "creative destruction," so they targeted Western traditions like a politician "going negative" on his opponent in an election. The black legends have been growing steadily more slanderous and false as we become more progressive. We have reached a state where most all Westerners are trained from childhood to despise there origins. This liberalism might be defensible if the information used in this training was true, but it is not. Much of Western "conservatism" is just liberalism on time-delay.

White women gravitate to Middle Eastern religion and husbands like rats fleeing a sinking ship. Whatever there weaknesses, Muslim men have not (yet) imbibed a self-hatred of their origins, even though they have far more reason to do so than do we. This provides them an inner self confidence that liberalized Westerners lack. Of course we are trying to convince them to be liberal but they do not appear to be buying. Until Western men renounce their own internalized liberalism, Western women will feel motivated to abandon ship.

They gain strength and pride from cultural markers. Christians once had cultural markers, but have now become weak and ashamed.

Most of the churches are liberal and the few traditionalists are outcast as hate criminals. However, Islam is lionized by the British elite.

What women say they want is not what they want.

Feminism does not come from women. University Women's Studies departments are underwritten by the big foundations. In popular culture, feminism is pushed by the male-run Big Hollywood and Big Media.

Yup. Liberals constantly smear Christian “fundamentalists”, and yet they support Muslims, who are fundamentalists about the Koran.

"Moreover, he says, often these female ­converts are eager to display the ­visible signs of their faith — in particular the hijab — whereas many Muslim girls brought up in the faith choose not to."

I have said for decades that, that is a draw of (American/ now western)women to Islam, the chance to stand out and be noticed.

Liberalism does not care about it own professed “ideals.” It is just serves as a front to destroy Christianity.

Good point; however, in this case the practice of non-assimilation (shariah law, colonies, Islamic schools, etc) reasonably appears to symbolize an intent to overwhelm America rather than an intent to become American.

Here are a couple of my favorite and often posted quotes that says it better:

…democracy is…forbidden for Muslims…democracy (is) incompatible with Islam because the Koran insisted Allah was the sole lawmaker… humans have no right to make laws.
(http://www.news.com.au/national/islamist-leader-burhan-hanif-tells-aussie-muslims-told-to-shun-democracy/story-e6frfkvr-1225887784755#ixzz0slho45BW)

…move in the arteries of the system without anyone noticing…until you reach all the power centers…
– Fethullah Gluon 1999, founder of 85 US taxpayer-supported Islamic schools. (http://thelastcrusade.org/2010/05/24/bill-gates-funds-gulen-islamist-movement/)

It seems legitimate to ask, for what purpose do Muslims choose to live in the U.S. if they have no intent to jump into the melting pot known as America?

You also said: Christians once had cultural markers…

It is very disappointing to see the large number of newer churches of all denominations in my community without a large cross reaching for the sky.

Rant over, and bring me another bear as well.

They're hoping to get grandfathered in and not have to undergo forced conversion.

Muslims respect strength and they might have been willing to respect us if we had it but of course, just letting them in and continuing to ship them here by the hoards demonstrates a suicidal weakness. Muslims despise weakness and will hardly assimilate to a weak culture so they stay here to take advantage.

If Christians do not want to lead, Muslims are happy to fill the vacuum.

Once these left-wing converts learn their new religion a little more, they will find that Islam has some of the same doctrines that these liberals condemn in Christianity.

Like Islam strongly condemns homosexuality, saying that no one is born homosexual, and that the only option is to repent and become hetero. Their friends probably won’t think that’s as chic as the burkas.

The Muslims are also “intolerant” of other religions, and have a history of the wars and corruption like the left condemns in Christianity.

Maybe there is no double standard though since they’ll be treating Islam the same way they treat Christianity, as a designer religion where they take the pieces they want and ignore the rest. They are not really converting to Islam but just calling their do-it-yourself religion “Islam”.
