There is a difference between faith in God which is religious
and faith in the future which is secular

Most Muslims are not bad people, but their culture and Germanic cultures can
never reconcile.

Well, he should lead by example and end celibacy, the sight of a bunch of
men sworn to celibacy trying to tell everyone else how to lead their sexual
lives is amusing and a little sad too. Yes, I'm in the UK, what do I know
about catholicism, a bit, having been press-ganged (without my consent) into
that organisation at birth, compulsorily educated within its school system
( 'faith' schools, run by nuns and priests and, because I was a 'catholic'
child, thats where I was sent) and more than happily expelled from same when
I finally figured out that 'beliefs' cannot be enforced and told them where
to shove theirs.

As for Bush, well, the other guy introduced him as part of his arguemnt
about the rights of leaders to tell us all what to do, apparently, he seems
to have made some connection between disobeying a pope and disliking
Bush.... he is right , of course, both require independent thought and a
degree of rationality.

As for the 'Muslim Threat'... I treat that the same as the 'Chinese threat',
the Russian threat' and every other 'threat' produced in the long line of
'threats' raised to justify blind obedience to some 'leader' and acceptance
of the need to go kill some other poor bugger whose leader is saying the
same about me....

Most muslims, like most catholics and most protestants and most of every
other shade of religiousity just tend to get on with their lives, their
religion is something they were born with, imposed at childbirth, and they
have been so labelled ever since. Most would struggle to be described as
'social church/temple' goers, most have precious little idea of whatever
great thoelogy debate is so exercising their popes/priests/imans/gurus
minds, few coudl even manage to concisely recount the main points of their
'religion' and the differences between them and the other main religons,
never mind the competing sects within theirs.

the 'Muslim' threat is not that religuos, it is political and economic, a
conflict between two regions over increasingly scarce resources and one lot
happen to be 'christian' and the other lot 'muslim' and each desperate to
find some ragged cloth to cover their naked ambitions. So, guess what....
lets make it 'religion' and stoke up the hatred and stand back and watch the
bodycount mount....

A lot of that has to do with the disastrous regime of Bush,
which has pretty much put an end to American world
hegemony, although the fact that Europe, Russia and
the states of east Asia are not ruled by God-botherers can
only help them.

As for the Muslims, if there get to be too many of them
in Europe, the Europeans can exchange them for
Mexicans with the U.S. The Mexicans are Catholics
and speak a European language and will get along fine.
The Muslims, at least the religious ones, will fit right
in in the cultural desert of America and can preach
hell and damnation to their native fundamentalist
counterparts out in the suburbs and be preached
upon in turn. Maybe they'll even kill one another,

None of the above. Europe is in the process of replacing all of that with
selfishness, greed, materialism and consumerism. They follow America and in
the end they will justify themselves and turn to right fundamentalist false
religion and preach that greed and selfishness are true Christian
principles.

Actually, where I live we have a pretty decent-size Muslim population
(and a decent-size Mexican population) but, aside from the way the
Moslems pray, when they eat (and don't) and what they celebrate, you
couldn't tell most of them from immigrants from any other part of the
world, unless you stood outside a halal butcher and took notes. Some
of them wear traditional dress (it's still a bit strange to see a
young girl working as a supermarket checker wearing a head scarf and
skirt), but the speech of a native-born teenager doesn't seem to
change based on religion.

Chances are, however, that your prospects of being raped, or of
getting away with rape, vary radically with your religion.

.. The hell, you say! What are you trying to do, throw the monkey-wrench
of reasonable discourse into some good old Muslim-hatin' gears?

Why, I hear them Muslamoid Arabiacs don't bleed like you 'n me. They got
green blood, and they eat Europeans at night and steal their bodies!
It's true! The President of Amway said so, according to the
WorldNetDaily, as reported by Free Republic.

Do you have some statistics to back up that comment or did you find them on
a nazi web page, you know, the kind you consider tell it as it is in plain

Well I did not know any statistics, but I was familiar with various
examples of prominent and senior Islamic preachers urging the "youths"
to go at it.

But since you asked, I then googled Muslim Rape, and got a sackload of
statistics. http://www.google.com/search?q=Muslim+rape

Check them out.

Around here? I think the women who are at greatest risk around here
are WASCs, and their greatest risk is from WASCs. Or maybe black AS
Christians, in some towns.
