What war? Christian nations are allowing themselves to be over-run by people who don’t now and never will accept Christian values. Egypt is one of the few nations fighting for Christians. The other thing that isn’t being fought for is to preserve antiquities. Doesn’t the UN have an arm that should be in there protecting the ancient sites in Iraq?

This is a very interesting post that might help explain what is really happening in the world, and here in America in particular.

One thing it does, is show those willing to pay attention and use their God given intellect, is that Obama is not an agent of socialism or communism, but is working for Islamism.

Communism is doomed by its lack of faith in a higher power, as Perkins pointed out, and the Christian world is not far behind due in large part by its lack of zeal for its faith. As an example, where are the great christian evangelists of the last decades?

On the other hand, most Muslims are their own evangelists. Unlike Jehovah Witnesses, they don't go door-to-door trying to convince other Christians to their version, but instead seek and more often than not, undercut the ties that many Christians have in their own beliefs.

So Muslims will declare war on China, Gulf States, and Western African nations this century?

Here’s the probable article of Toynbee they’re referring to. Not by any means entirely complimentary.

Keep in mind that Toynbee was pretty much a nut. If you can read the article you can see he draws precise parallels between the Jewish Zealots of Jesus’ day and the Islamists of today, and between the Herodians and the Turks under Kemal Ataturk.

While there are certainly valid comparisons and analogies, Toynbee’s whole schtick is that he carries them waaayyy beyond the point where a reasonable person would give it up as no longer applicable.

Toynbee’s writing is brilliant, and for a while some decades back I was kind of a fanboy. But when he got into areas where I was more familiar with the history, it became obvious to me that he was picking elements of the history that supported his great scheme of history, and ignoring those that didn’t.

Very interesting guy to read, if you filter out the BS.

The US from its founding is clearly, well used to be, a Christian nation. A Christian nation with a muslim in the WH obviously is not boding well for the US and other Christian nations who once depended on the US to protect them from Christian genocide.
