If the Arabs were not good teachers and story tellers, they would not have brought down the Byzantine empire. They did not use violence alone. This is the true meaning of the thousand year reign of peace.

It's not inevitable at all. If Europe adopted an immigration policy similar to that of Japan or South Korea it wouldn't happen. Something inevitable is something beyond your control. Europe will become a majority muslim continent only if they continue to want that to happen.

I agree.
I have no interest in religion at all, personally. But have respects for those that have faith, that's fairplay to them.
I hate when people try push religion on you though, then they can feck off.
I can't see Islam taking over the Western world in the near future, or at all, quite the opposite if anything.
The problem is, science and atheism are becoming dogmatic creeds of their own.

They can't do this. Like all westernized countries,they have a declining birth rate. This is a direct result of a nasty caste system meeting good birth control. They now have more old people than young people. They are importing the Muslims because the Muslims understand Europeans more than most other third worlders. With all the gene swapping between Southern Europeans and Islamic countries, they may even be the same race.

Pretty bleak vision of the future but it is unfortunately a realistic one.
I disagree with the gay marriage and mass abortion being an important part of this process.
Westeners have the best infant survival rate and the best condition of living of all groups and therefore do not need to produce as many offspring as others do(to ensure a positive survival rate, to help or to have as many males as possible.)
The same way, i can see Texas being a majority of Mexicans in the future.
Maybe this is temporary and the newcomers in the comfort of our advanced society will start adopting the reproductive habits of our society.

Old people are still a force to be reckoned with they know things which could make life unpleasant for the people in control of western countries. Declinning birthrates usually occur in totalitarian countries. Meaning people have suffered injustice and no longer feel their countries are good places to raise children in.

The extremist ones do, but they only make up a small majority.

Many westerners who are now converting are doing so because they find the Sufi's teachings alluring. Cat Stevens,for instance, was not converted by threats or beatings.

I think its a bit ridiculous to say that any Muslims want to push their views on the rest of the world. The extremist ones do, but they only make up a small majority.
I mean, we could have said the same thing 200 years ago about France and Christianity.
