Thanks for the reply. I'm sure that there are lots of statistics out there if you know where to look. I had read facts similar to what you posted, but don't recall the details.

It is striking that there has been huge muslim immigration into Europe, with immigrants birthing lots of babies, while simultaneously there has been a sharply declining European birthrate.

The formerly Christian continent may turn "green" in a few decades barring a Christian revival. There is a lot of "close the borders" talk on this forum -- understandable, certainly, after 9/11. I share the concern about terrorists slipping in. But at least the bulk of the immigrants from Latin America are Christian, nominally Christian, or predisposed to Christianity, not Islam. Pity the Europeans.

- I believe that the birthrate per couple in Holland is 1.1 which is not enough to replace the couple let alone increase the population. The birthrate of the Muslim immigrants (most of whom are of child bearing age) is much higher. Steyn said in an article about six months ago that unless Holland does something about this trend that, by the year 2020, Holland will be the first country in Europe to become a majority Muslim state. Then, when they begin to close the Christian churches and enforce sharia law, the fun will really start.
