MUSLIMS want to eradicate Christianity and conquer Europe - the Catholic cardinal tipped to be the next POPE has incredibly claimed.
Austrian Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn gave the unexpected warning on Sunday during a special celebration for the Church festival "Holy Name of Mary".
According to the Archdiocese of Vienna, the Cardinal said: "Will there be an Islamic conquest of Europe? Many Muslims want that and say: Europe is at its end."
He asked God to have mercy on Europe and to show mercy to its people, which he said "are in danger of forfeiting our Christian heritage."
Cardinal Schoenborn, who is also the Archbishop of Vienna, explained that people could already feel this loss, "not only economically, but above all, in human and religious matters."
The statement by the Carnival came as many places across Austria have been commemorating the 333th anniversary of the Battle of Vienna.
During the battle in 1683, combined Christian forces defeated over 100,000 soldiers from the Ottoman Empire.
The battle was fought by the Habsburg Monarchy, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Holy Roman Empire against the invading Muslim Ottoman Empire.
Polish King John III Sobieski famously commanded the Christian army toward its victory.

Pope Obvious I
Yep, we need another crusade or two. If this guy becomes Pope, I may go back to the Church.
II Chronicles 7:14....AMEN!
Well of COURSE they do. And the world is letting it happen right in front of our eyes.
Uh. duh.
Ah Muslims are obsessed with Christianity and while they’re busy we can destroy them
But will he call for Christians to actually fight? If not then it is of no use.
Crusade? I doubt the call will go out.
Make him leader of an European citizens army dedicated to the elimination of Muslim designs of supremacy. Perhaps he would be the next Jan Sobieski or Charles Martel. Cardinal Hammer?
ROFLOL !!! (you win post of the dei)
destroy them
Annihilate Islam.
This is nothing new. Moslems themselves have always said this.
Paging Pope Urban II, Pope Urban II...
“’Muslims want to eradicate Christianity’ and conquer Europe claims potential next Pope”
This just in from Cardinal Obvious...
But seriously, seeing the obvious seems to not be a common feature among the worlds ruling elite. Yes, make this guy pope.
“incredibly”??? Zoie, read some history. You are probably of the Millennial generation that not knowing history, you will be cursed to repeat it.
Party like it’s 1099..
That is the problem us Kafirs have in facing up to Islam, with people like George Bush, Tony Blair and the present Pope being examples of clueless Infidels.
The are many more examples throughout our politicians and military etc. -Tom
Good heavens, no. This is practically the only correct thing he’s said.
