The islamic world is civilized?

I have the book and would recommend it to others.

Good, thanks. I’m going to download it to my Nook. I’ve been a fan of “Spengler’s” columns on Demographics at the Asia Times for quite a while.

As I see it... Islam is currently dependant on Western (non-Islamic) countries to grow their food. If Western civilization collapses, Islam, women, and children will be hardest hit. Islamic countries simply do not have the capability to support the hungry Muslim masses.

Insh’Allah

I’m glad you posted this. It was previously posted but I couldn’t remember the title for a search.

With all the recent blah, blah, blah about how the world will be so overpopulated we will all be eating only one small ration of soylent green a day this article postulates quite the opposite that we may experience a population crash.

Across the entire Muslim world, university-educated Muslim women bear children at the same rate as their infecund European counterparts.

Interesting statement. What percentage of Muslim women are university-educated? How does that number compare to non-Muslim European women?

Thanks for posting. I just now ordered this book from Amazon.

this article postulates quite the opposite that we may experience a population crash.

An impending population inversion and crash (more elderly than young, then rapidly decreasing total population) is the single greatest threat facing humanity, but no one knows or cares.

It is.

This is where the left is so flawed in their philosophy. For all their posturing about preserving natural resources they fail to understand the single greatest natural resource on this planet is human beings.

Even though Islam is “dying” Goldman is still positing that this dying people will lash out to make their enemies in the West suffer.

So buckle your seatbelts, folks.

A quote from Spengler before the 08 election seared my mind:

"Spengler of the Asia Times believes that he has discovered the ruling passion of both Ann Dunham and her son Barack Obama, and that this ruling passion is radical anti-Americanism."

What, even more than Global Warming??

´women...children, hardest hit.´

Now, where have we heard that before?

[sageb1]

Hope?

I don’t find the ‘for example’ countries of Iran and Turkey convincing when it comes to Muslim demographics. How about Indonesia and Pakistan?

What is the average family size for Muslims worldwide - that is the question.
