denial of religion

the jews of pre-war europe were conscious of the rantings that their belief system was not something to be respected. The Jews understood this, and to a certain extent accepted the demands of secularism of the "state" becoming a religion. But what were they to do? Their faith and race are intrinsically tied together.

This is not so with native Europeans. This consciousness is being understood and accepted as time passes. The acceptance of Christianity by Europeans [again, by the wandering Jews] had a semi-eastern philosophy turned religion but this will not happen with Islam. The Europeans that turn away from the Churches in droves do so because they feel their ancestors were duped into following Christianity based on fear and 'politics'. ...and they won't be fooled again....

The nonsense of the Islamic fables [stolen/twisted and rediculous] will never resonate with anyone. Even prisoners in Europe don't accept the same simplistic religious yearnings found in the American Prisons - which is where the most converts are being made. I think Islam is in for a rude awakening.. despite the charitable allowances made to the starving refugees from Africa etc. The Turks understand this [they were the only ones to really spread Islam] and that is why their flavor of Islam has never been so fanatical.

Politicians will cower and bend to whatever suits them - just like in the USA. Can't wait to have a President Osama eh? oh, sorry President Hussein Obama... such a tolerant nice sound to it...
