"Islam Strengthening in Europe with the Blessing of the Church"
Gatestone Institute ^ | January 29, 2017 | Giulio Meotti

Posted on 01/29/2017 6:25:05 PM PST by Lera

Everyone in Italy and the rest of Europe will "soon be Muslim" because of our "stupidity", warned Monsignor Carlo Liberati, Archbishop Emeritus of Pompei. Liberati claimed that, thanks to the huge number of Muslim migrants alongside the increasing secularism of native Europeans, Islam will soon become the main religion of Europe. "All of this moral and religious decadence favours Islam", Archbishop Liberati explained.

Décadence is also the title of a new book by the French philosopher Michel Onfray, in which he suggests that the Judeo-Christian era may have come to an end. He compares the West and Islam: "We have nihilism, they have fervor; we are exhausted, they have a great health; we have the past for us; they have the future for them".

Archbishop Liberati belongs to a growing branch of Catholic leaders who refuse to see the future belonging to Islam in Europe. They speak in open opposition to Pope Francis, who does not seem too impressed by the collapse of Christianity due to falling birth rates, accompanied by religious apathy and its replacement by Islam.

Pope Francis's official vision is personified by Bishop Nunzio Galantino, who was appointed by the Pontiff as the Secretary General of Italy's Bishops. Last December, Galantino gave an interview in which he dismissed any religious motivation behind jihadist attacks and claimed that, instead, "money" is what is behind them.

There are now many Catholic commentators who are questioning the Church's blindness about the danger Europe is facing. One is the cultural editor of the French magazine Valeurs Actuelles, Laurent Dandrieu, who writes:

"Islam has every chance massively to strengthen its presence in Europe with the blessing of the Church. The Church is watching the establishment of millions of Muslims in Europe... and Muslim worship in our continent as an inescapable manifestation of religious freedom. But the civilizational question is simply never asked .... By breaking away from the Europe's indigenous peoples and their legitimate concerns, the Church is not only leading Europe to an impasse, it is also shooting itself in the foot".

It’s been said that Religion is the opiate of the masses.
In that light, Islam is bath salts.

The nineteen hijackers who struck us Kafirs on 9-11 had money-education and good health. They didn't do it for money. They died doing it because they believed in Allah and Muhammad and that they would get an eternal reward in Heaven by striking a blow to us Infidels. -Tom

(from the article):" Last December, Galantino gave an interview in which he dismissed any religious motivation behind jihadist attacks
and claimed that, instead, "money" is what is behind them. "

Capt. Tom :" The nineteen hijackers who struck us Kafirs on 9-11 had money-education and good health.
They didn't do it for money.
They died doing it because they believed in Allah and Muhammad
and that they would get an eternal reward in Heaven by striking a blow to us Infidels."

T I K : Maybe we should get Nunzio Galantino to meet Marie Harff
It was Harf who said that the jihadis just wanted jobs
It sounds like Starbucks is in agreement, offering 10,000 refugees employment earlier today.
Stupid is ,.. as stupid does among "useful idiots".
After all, the Muslims attacked the early Christian pilgrims going to the Holy Land, and the Crusades were all about jobs, too, weren't they ?../s

Islam, at war with Christianity since 648 AD over jobs - Rite !

Just take a moment to let that statement sink in.

“Islam Strengthening in Europe with the Blessing of the Church”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Exactly correct and prophesied long ago.

Overt Hashgacha Pratis just like DJT’s impossible election after saying and doing everything ‘wrong’ and having no political experience.

Islam isn’t conquering Christianity, Christianity is inviting Islam to conquer it.

When Good is Evil and Evil is Good, and the White Knight is talking backwards, that’s a dead giveaway we’re witnessing the supernatural.

After 9-11i revisited Revelation. Beheaded for their faith just stunned me. What once seemed fantasy was More probable. The Christian Era is supposed to end, in a manner of speaking. Friends returning from china talked about the persecuted Christians there. In fact, it’s happening in many countries because Islam and the socialists are delighted in death and united against two groups of people. It will be like the Romans, death broadcasted for pleasure and profit. The only people who can’t see this future is us, American Christians. Look at the Yazidi Christians, that is our future. Rape wharehouses with Christians, boys, girls, men and women.

He is showing his true colors .
He isn’t following Jesus , just like almost all of Europe.
They side with evil against God’s plan for the nation of Israel , they are getting the evil they sided with.
Isalm is a judgement against a society for turning against God. If you believe the bible you can not side with Islam.
They don’t believe it , they do what is right in their own eyes .
