Though most people ignore the fact, almost all of the world's believing Muslims believe that all of mankind should be Muslim.

Hmm, that could be considered an understatement.
      Islam's worldview - The Muslims of Islamic states, and many within the USA, have the tradition of a worldview that divides humanity into two opposing halves.

    Dar al-Islam, House of Islam, is the zone where Islam rules.   The other side is the war zone that is called, Dar el Harb, House of War.   This worldview dictates that war will continue between these two sections of humanity until the supremacy of Islam is fully established throughout the earth.     FR Thread ~ Information on the "Religion of Peace"

More than 90 percent of the worlds conflicts are between muslims and other muslims or muslims and non-muslims. However, Bush has so far successfully brainwashed Americans into believing that Islam means peace. It's going to be very difficult to win a war against an enemy that is not properly defined.

Today Muslims represent 1/5th of the worlds population. However, more than 1/4 of the worlds chidren are muslim. Does anybody know what a horrible future awaits the world when more than 1/4 of the worlds population is muslim. Look at the trouble we have today. Imagine what a nightmare the future will bring.

Western Europe imports 80 percent of their oil from the middle east. Western Europe doesn't sneeze without first getting permission from the arab oil shieks. Other than that, Western Europe has become more ammoral than they were prior to the advent of Christianity.

"All Non-Muslims Have Diseased Hearts"

In the hearts of non-Muslims is a disease, and Allah has increased their disease, and grievous is the penalty they will incur, because they are false.
(Koran 2:8-10)

Excellent, intriguing article, but it doesn't take China into account.

As per my earlier model, China falls in with the Atheists. You know, godless Communists and all that...

Secular humanism and capitalism are not mutually exclusive.

Of course not, one is a political view and the other an economic system.

This "unified world theory" is not political or economic, but religious, consisting of the three elements listed, Islam, Judeo-Christianity, and Atheism.

"Christianity may be spreading in many areas, but Chrisianity itself is very split in its socio-economic beliefs and support. I have been stunned by some of the statements coming from the pope and the vatican lately."

Just look in this country at how the black population (90+%) blindly follows the Democratic Socialists lead, whether they be Christian or not. In fact they criticize any who do not buy into the system "Uncle Tom's", oblivious to the fact that the definition much nearly in fact fits themselves as faceles tools of the masters of their fate i.e. Hillary et al.

I believe the article is good to, as far as it goes. My contention is that there are only two sides, world socialism and world capitalism. Socialism favors dictators and therefore islam has sided with it. Capitalism and democracy go together, and are sweeping the world. If socialism does not do something soon they will lose

This is the reason about one million non-Muslim Sudanese have been killed in the last 15 years --

First, fellas, this figure is only half of what the estimates are. That's his first mistake.

The second mistake is that Christianity is on the rise, ahead of Islam and continues to outdistance it. Fox News did a segment on the statistics on 1/3/2003. Islam is NOT the fastest growing religion. By 2025 Christianity will have reached a point where Islam will never be able to catch up.

One fact the author seems to miss is that oppressive regimes, including Islamic regimes, hold most of their "converts" by force. It is illegal to be anything except Islam, for example. Not so with Christianity and democracy. You are still free to be a pagan or communist or socialist here last time I checked. Remember the "Gates test?" Open the gates of the US and which way do people go? Into the country. Open the gates of an Islamic or communist country and which way to the people go? Out as fast as they can.

Our biggest worry at this moment is not any idealogical threat; it is offering our soverignty to the UN. The second biggest threat is internal decay.

Then why are the words "socialism" and "secularism" Siamese twins in the article?

"Yeah, but we got the weapons."

Clinton did his best to give them away, especially to China.

We may not be the only ones to have the weapons after a while. Clinton to China, China to N Korea, N Korea to Iraq, Iraq to terrorists. Bang.

"Finally, what this article is mistaking for the truth is the residue of the past"<.i>

Poetic statements, but I think wishfull thinking.

WOW.... It hits the nail of the head. Squarely and profoundly.

I've spoken of the current situation as an ideological two-front war.

Freedom vs. Socialism vs. Medievalism.

Because this faction of the trichotomy has secularism (atheism) as their religion and socialism as their form of government. I fall back on the "godless communists" cliche'.

GLOBAL CALIPHATE

As I understand this, it is the effort of Islam to establish a "new world order" so to speak, based on Islam and the laws of Islam.

This is exactly what Dennis Prager is saying. Islam is attempting to rule the world. European socialism is attempting to rule the world. Then there is the good ol USA. We are good, but it sure is lonely.

The real issue is the socialist/egalitarian ethic. not all athiests are socialists, and not all socialists are athiest, but the reall issue and problem is Socialism and its related "isms" (just hang around campus and you'll know the names).

Christianity might be on the raise, but it does not mean the American form of Capitalism is.

If this is true, all one has to do is come to Fifth Avenue in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn to see the future. If you think that these people care about assimilating (or at least "peacefully coxisting" a la the Mennonites or Hasidim) one visit or brief conversation will make you reconsider.

"European socialism is attempting to rule the world. Then there is the good ol USA. "

This is exactly what the French/German opposition on Iraq is about. They cannot abide a USA version of the world order using the UN. They only want the UN perverted to the end that they want... they were happy with Clinton, since he was bending US policies to convert our country to Euro socialism and put us under the UN thumb.

Western Europe has become more ammoral than they were prior to the advent of Christianity.

True. Say what you will about the old Pagan faiths, but at least they provided a semblence of morality and a foundation upon which to intellectually and morally combat invaders. The moral vacillators in Western Europe would go without a whimper in the face of a comprehensive Jihad.

Take heart. It's ALWAYS lonely at the top!
