Muslims Overtake Christians in 2007, enter Catholicisation.

The Vatican statistics say that for the first time in history the number of Muslims has overtaken that of Christians (in the year 2007).  (Sunday Catholic Weekly)

In the article ‘Catholicisation’ of Islam?' by Fr Jozef Grzywaczewski, the author explains the increase in Muslims this way:   "Certainly, it is connected with the birth rate: in Christian countries it decreases whereas in Muslim countries it is still high, the cause being polygamy..."

In Europe a Muslim declares to have one wife but his ‘cousins’ live with him. When they have children they receive benefits for each child as single mothers; their benefits are higher than the benefits for married mothers. Therefore, it is not a problem to earn a living for a family with about 20 children. In the opinion of some parish priest in northern France many Muslim families resemble a village elementary school with about 20-30 children. The attempts to introduce Islamic religious instruction following the model of Catholic or Protestant catechesis and the increasing number of mosques being built evoke concern.

The author proceeds to point out differences in Islam and Christianity that many of us may not have considered previously but are very important.

Catholicisation concerns the organisation of religious life. It is known that Muslims gather to pray in mosques like Christians gather in churches but the function of imams who preside over believers’ meetings cannot be compared with the function of parish priests or Protestant pastors.  ...   The first one is that the imams who come to the West do not usually have any general and religious education.  ...   In Christianity love is the principle. ...   In Islam fight is the basic principle.

Here comes the insane part:

The one that leads prayer is not a leader of the community, i.e. he can exert influence but he cannot be held responsible. Having that in mind, the French authorities conceived the idea to create something akin to an Islamic church, i.e. a system of dioceses (according to the regions) and parishes.  ...   The authorities are ready to find financial means to pay the higher Islamic authorities and even the local imams. But here we face a paradox: there are many people who would like to take up such offices but the Muslims as a whole oppose the idea because such a solution is alien to their century-long tradition. But the French authorities, together with President Sarkozy, insist on introducing this system. ... 

This attempt to create Islamic structures and hierarchy like the Catholic structure is called ‘catholicisation’ by the Muslim environments.

Idiots !  Islam is patient, as witnessed by the Grand Mosque in Paris:

The Paris Grand Mosque (Grande Mosquée de Paris) plays a very important role for the Muslim community in Paris (and in France). The project of its construction originated in 1895. The realisation of the idea began in 1906. The decision was taken in 1916 and the construction works began in 1922. The building was completed in 1926. The area of the mosque is 1 ha. The mosque was financed by the state. It holds a prayer area, ritual purifications for men and women, conference halls, library as well as a restaurant and some more rooms. Tourists can visit it by paying the admission fee but they cannot enter the prayer area.

Again I say:  IDIOTS !!!

Also new to the blogroll is Road 90, a new exciting place on the Internet, to share common passion and interest for Israel, Road 90,  named after the longest route in Israel, which runs across the entire country, and I believe that it will become the largest place of sharing videos about Israel.  Check it out.

France is doomed. Now if they got rid of their welfare system and made those mothers go to work, their Muslim population would go down. They would leave the nation in a heartbeat.

Debbie I really thought you knew, seriously that there are more Muslims in the world than Christans and Jews. This is not new news. It makes me sick none the less and I am glad you know now so you can spread the word. I wrote on this last year that the growing number of Muslims is so they can turn their kids into Jihadists and homicide bombers and terrorists because their plan as it tells them in their sick Koran to overtake the world.

But fear not. The G-d of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob will save us from this demonic crap! (excuse the expression hun-but Muslims infuriate me with their sick agenda.)

"Idiots ! Islam is patient..."

Exactly, they'll be happy to take the stupid infidels money and pretend to like him.

Let's watch how the population shift works, as the Marines continue to thin down the Islamofascist population. That's gotta help the balance some ;)

This is the same approach used by the polygamous fundamentalist Mormans in the USA.
