Chinese immigration to Europe

Reader comment on item: Muslim Europe

Submitted by José Josephs (Canada), May 12, 2004 at 21:23

The observation that Chinese immigration to Europe will somewhat offset the decline of the Christian majority numbers may be correct, but the assumption needs a little help. In parts of Canada with a high percentage of Chinese & Korean immigrants, many of these Asian newcomers are very vigorous and enthusiastic Christians. Asian immigrants are an excellent counter-balance to Muslim immigrants, and they make excellent neighbors, too!
