Very well put. Only thing I might point out is that the Islamics are not trying to escape Islam, as they are bringing it with them. They are not here to assimilate, but to conquer.

True, and a good majority; still, there are some who—whether "good" Muslims or not—who are here to work and believe in the America way of life.

When I wrote that, I had in mind one client of mine who owns a little convenience store that isn't doing to well. The neighborhood is real depressed economically.

He's an Indian Muslim, has family in India which is affluent, but doesn't want to live there because of the corruption in the way they do business.

We've discussed religion, Christianity, and Islam. He was always very polite; kind of standing there with an uncomfortable grin which projects that you really aren't getting across to them and they are being polite.

A jihadi? No. A "moderate" Muslim. Yes, in the context of Daniel Pipe's and other secular thinkers' positions.

Bottom line, spiritually lost and in need of the enlightenment of the Holy Spirit to the truth of the Gospel.

But while qualified ministers of the Gospel to the Muslim community continue to be in such short supply, Islam will continue to advance within the dark, spiritual vacuum which exemplifies our times.
