As a proud Polish-American, I am so proud of both the land of my ancestors and that of our Magyar brothers and sisters.
Western Europe prospered in part because Eastern Europe fought the evil Turks. And so it seems that history is repeating itself.
Earlier today in another thread I posted this and I think it works in here as well.
Are you familiar with Monty Pythons fish dance skit?
This is how I think it applies to history.
Imagine the fellow with the big fish knocking people doing him no harm off of the pier one after another. First is Arabia, parts of the ME, Egypt, North Africa etc until finally after some people resist.
Then youve two guys with big fish facing off until the Christian has a secularist, safe by the protection hes given, talking about how great the Muslim (and how bad it was to mistreat him by resisting) is before stabbing the Christian in the back and inviting the Muslim to emigrate.
Yes, its spiritual warfare just between Christ and what I would argue Id the likely religion of Anti-Christ ... with an unhealthy cesspool full of secular and post Christian heathanism in the West thrown in for bad measure.
