Angola is a majority-Christian nation of about 16 million people, an estimated 55 percent of whom are Catholic, 25 percent of whom belong to African Christian denominations, 10 percent of whom follow major Protestant traditions, 5 percent of whom belong to Brazilian Evangelical churches and where only between 80,000 and 90,000 people are Muslim, according to the U.S. State Department.

That’s a good start. Next: ban lawyers.
I agree. Its no business of the State to legalise or ban religious thought. However, as has been stated many times and understood clearly by those of us who can be bothered to take note, Islam is not just a religion. It’s an entire cultural, idealogical and political system.
As much as I hold islam in contempt more than any other religion, I’m a bit too devoted to freedom of religion (so long as force isn’t involved) to fully support this.
We don’t have to ban islam, we just have to stop bending over backwards to suck up to it.
Finally, some people have the good sense to call a spade a spade. {Is that racist?}
You have two choices, they are absolutely binary, kill or die.
The very existance of islam constitutes the use of force.
mooselimbs use lies and violence as part of their practice and cannot survive without it.
Unless you kill them then you don’t stem the spread of anything by destroying the mosques. All you do is drive them underground.
Better underground than unfettered public access.
Geert Wilders is the leader of the PVV (Partij voor de Vrijheid, Party for Freedom) in The Netherlands. In recognition of an important anniversary this month, Mr. Wilders has undertaken an ambitious project, which he explains below.Let us raise a flag of truth and liberation by Geert Wilders
Nine years ago this month, in November 2004, policemen wearing bullet proof vests and carrying machine guns picked me up at my home and drove me to a safe place. This happened two days after the filmmaker and Islam-critic Theo van Gogh was murdered by an Islamic assassin in broad daylight on an Amsterdam street. The police brought me to safety because Islamic criminals had threatened to kill me, too. Because I, too, spoke the truth about Islam, the biggest threat to our freedom and our civilization.
Since that ominous date, nine years ago, I have been forced to live under constant police protection. I have lived in army barracks, prisons and safe houses. The threats continue to this day and have deprived me of my privacy and my freedom.
But I will continue to speak. The flag of Saudi Arabia proudly proclaims the Shahada or the Islamic declaration of faith: “There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.”
In remembrance of the past nine years, in remembrance of the thousands of victims who were murdered in that period by Islamic assassins, in London, in Moscow, in Mumbai, in Nairobi, and in countless other places, and in remembrance of the millions of people — women, apostates, non-Muslims — who daily suffer discrimination and humiliation from the evil ideology of Islam and oppressive Islamic Sharia law, I offer the Islamic world a new flag — a flag with a declaration of truth and liberation:
“Islam is a lie, Muhammad a criminal, the Koran is poison.”Only when the Islamic world comes to realize this truth, will it be able to free itself from evil, making the world a better and safer place for all human beings.
Only when the free world comes to realize that Islam is predominantly a totalitarian ideology rather than a religion, will it be able to defend its liberties and values.
But underground you can't keep track of them.
Eh, I’m just not comfortable outright banning a religion. I prefer to punish actions, not beliefs.
Once not long ago we all understood and accepted this bit of common sense.
yep
And singing contests.
Yes. And sometimes it’s not entirely clear whether someone is Christian or indigenous, or maybe a little of both. They might go to church but consult a witch doctor in certain circumstances.
But there are very few Muslims, and those from outside. They’d be smart to get rid of them—if they can.
Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached.[5]
