Francis is right at the center of this problem. His unrestrained enthusiasm for unchecked Muslim immigration into Europe flies in the face of historical facts and is an insult to the men who died fighting the Islamic scourge in the Crusades, at Lepanto, at the gates of Vienna and on the Iberian peninsula during the Moorish occupation.

One of the strange characteristics of the period through which we're living, is that faithful Catholics now find themselves ostracized not only from the secular, hedonist world in which they live but also from their own Church by the constant vilification aimed in their direction by the Church's hierarchy regarding issues such as relations with Islam and Catholic moral teaching. The Church has always had problems with Islam and secularists but what's unique about the present time is that the Catholic hierarchy now makes it clear that the Church's main problems come not from the Church's historical enemies but from Catholics within who want nothing more than to preserve Catholic tradition in these areas. The worthless Francis is front and center of this mess with his continual barrage of insults aimed at those who oppose Islamic encroachment on Christianity's historical heartland.

Given Islam's history and its openly stated supremacist purpose, anyone who is not Islamophobic is either a cretin, an irreligious pagan, a naive dupe of political correctness or an uncritical devotee of modern social and electronic media.

The Pope also said he "dreaded" hearing about the "Christian roots of Europe" because, to him, they take on "colonialist overtones" and he called on European nations to "integrate" Muslim migrants into the continent.

"This integration is all the more necessary today since, as a result of a selfish search for well-being, Europe is experiencing the grave problem of a declining birth rate," he stated. "A demographic emptiness is developing."
