...and so it begins.

[Viking2002]

Here's to hoping that the quintessential British 'stiff upper lip' prevails. Britain is the firewall between 'us' and 'them'.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I hate to say it, but the Anglicans have gone so wishy-washy that they have lost many believers. The Muslim faith at least declares absolute truths.

John Rhys-Davies, aka Gimli, to the rescue!

sad and scary. Wonder what Winston would say if he were still around. :<

Muslim leaders said it was a landmark in the rise of Islam in Britain and that Muslims must receive a share of the Church of England’s privileged status.

Wheee! Mooselimbs discover democracy!

Anglicans have gone so wishy-washy

Anglicans doubt the existence of god, but have no problem believing in gay bishops, gay marriages and gay parenting. I have more respect for the Muslims than I do for the Anglicans who have turned their backs on their faith.

That's right; give in. Let the jerks make sure there is no freedom of religion for anyone.

Muslim leaders said it was a landmark in the rise of Islam in Britain and that Muslims must receive a share of the Church of England’s privileged status.

Well, it's starting. First, a piece of the pie and then the entire thing.

Muslim leaders now want to translate their numerical advantage into tangible gains... Lord Ahmed, a Labour peer, said 10 extra seats should be allocated to other religions.

And, what should that "other religion" be, my dear Lord Ahmed? Baptist? Pentacostal? Catholic? Jewish?

If the Brits have any confusion where this is all headed, they need only just gaze southward toward the future Suzerainty of Muslim France.

What they see will make them shudder - or should, if they have a single lick of sense left!

Was Churchill particularly Christian? I couldn't find much on the web about his religious views.

Absolutes, yes. Truths, no.

Europe will wake up too late.

[Malesherbes]

The firewall has already been breached in countries like Nigeria where the Christian population (in large part conservative Anglican) is persecuted and often murdered by their Moslem neighbors.

[bereanway]

"...and so it begins" is exactly what I was thinking as I finished up the article. Man, the Euros have some serious, serious problems and they don't have any comprehension of what they're sliding into. Islam is moving north and unless something dramatic happens the Euros are going to lose their control and identity. They're begining to reap what they've sown over the past 30+ years.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

read it and weep.

And nary a sound is made by the Left. But let there be a word - indeed, a word - of ill will or perceived 'bigotry' against practicing members of that 'peace-loving' religion in Western society, and the Thought Police swoop down to pick your bones clean.

Every nation in the world that has a "white" majority is under assault demographically. The U.S. has a latin invasion underway, while Europe is under a Middle Eastern assault. I fear that any Western European culture that remains will soon be gone. Our liberal, guilt-ridden foreign and immigration policies have made us an endangered species. Unless something happens, no white persons will remain on this earth within 250 years. While we abort our children, the invaders produce 10 per capita. This situation will only worsen as time goes on. I truly fear for our heritage and our Western Civilization.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Well, what THEY call "truths".
