European Population Becoming Muslim.
The illegal immigration crisis in this country is undoubtedly
one of the biggest problems we have ever faced – and we need only look
at what is happening in Europe now to see what is in America’s future.
Several decades ago, the coming crisis was the population boom. Alarmists
said that the earth could not sustain a bigger population, and showed
us pictures of starving people. Since then, the birth rate has been
steadily dropping around the world.
According to statistics in Mark Steyn’s recent book “America Alone”,
birth rates in Europe in 2005 had dropped below the replacement rate
of 2 children per couple.
In Denmark, the rate is 1.77. In the Netherlands, 1.72. In France it’s
1.89, and in the United Kingdom it’s 1.6. German’s birth rate has fallen
to 1.35, and in Italy it has fallen to 1.23
Other parts of the world don’t fare much better. In Ireland, the birth
rate is 1.9. In Australia, 1.7. Canada’s has fallen to 1.48, and Japan’s
to 1.32. Russia is perhaps the worst, a dismal 1.14.
Only America exceeds the replacement rate with a score of 2.11, and
New Zealand is barely maintaining at 2.01.
As a result of the low birth rates, Europe’s population of indigenous
peoples are plummeting. The falling population is accentuated by the
emigration of many Europeans, who are leaving their home countries to
escape the rising Muslim population.
As Europe’s population falls, the vacuum it creates attracts Muslims
to immigrate for jobs. After all, as the baby boomers retire, there
are few younger Europeans who are entering the job pipeline.
Not only are Muslims immigrating to Europe by the millions, they contribute
to the population in another way. The average European birth rate is
1.38, but the birth rate for Muslims in those European countries is
3.5.
Here’s an even more frightening aspect – the Muslims
in Europe haven’t even gotten up to speed with other Muslim countries.
In Yemen, the birth rate is 6.58. In war-torn Afghanistan it’s 6.69.
In Somalia, it’s 6.76. Mali and Niger come in at 7.42 and 7.46, respectively.
Several decades ago, as European countries became “enlightened” with
liberal philosophies, they abandoned their Christian beliefs and began
embracing socialism in its place. The result was the self-perpetuating
pattern of destruction that they find themselves in today.
One of the core elements of Christianity is the family, which has traditionally
brought the kind of values to society that all cultures need to be stable.
It has also been one of the primary ways that the Gospel has been spread.
As Europeans began embracing liberalism, they became more self-absorbed
and less interested in the responsibilities that families require. As
a result, Europeans have abandoned marriage for temporary relationships,
and have either delayed or decided against having children.
As fewer children were born, fewer wage-earners were being born as well,
which is not a good thing in a socialistic society. In that situation,
those with jobs are increasingly taxed in order to pay for the care
of the aging and for those on welfare. As a result, fewer Europeans
feel that they can afford children, even if they have a desire to have
them at all.
As Muslims immigrate to Europe to fill the vacuum, they also bring with
them the tenets of Islam, which will eventually mean the Sharia laws
of the Koran. When they become a majority, it will it take only minutes
for them to make it the law of the land. When that happens, how long
will they tolerate the presence of the infidel?
Where will the Europeans go when they see that their days are numbered?
They will do what the Jews did in the 1930’s - they will come to America.
But the difference between the Jews of that time and the Europeans of
today is that the Jews brought their Judeo values and work ethic; the
Europeans will bring their social baggage and “enlightenment”.
As for America, we are already being invaded by illegals from down south,
and soon we will see an influx of European refugees. In the meantime,
Muslims are already moving to America for the very same reasons that
they did in Europe.
If there is ever a reason for the church to survive in America, besides
the redemption of man’s soul, this is it. As we see Europe die, will
we be foolish enough to do the same thing? When the Europeans arrive,
will they be shocked at the lack of socialism, or will they feel like
they have just moved home?
