Low self esteem and easily led.
In other words, a cult following.
The French culture is history ...
I agree. And I will tell you why French women like Islam. Because it is practiced passionately by men and women who care. In Europe, Christianity is spineless and leftist and limp. Women want someone who belives and stands for something...and so do men.
there is an old saw: If you don't teach your child to believe in something they will believe in anything.
Your post nailed it.
Reminds me of hearing Shaq explaining his conversion to Islam due to
(in so many words) Christianity being more about various forms of
dissipation and partying.
I was saying "heck, I must have fallen asleep at my conservative
Christian undergrad college when they covered 'Hedonism For Christians'".
Oh well, folks sometimes convert to religions or "-isms" for the
flimsiest of pretexts.
In so many words, there's your answer... low self esteem. It seems that the type of women attracted to radical Islam as converts have such low self worth that they're willing to be treated like trash in order to get a sense of belonging.
"Why European women are turning to Islam"
Females are atracted to strength and winners. It is not surprising that they are attracted to islam if it is perceived that the islamics are winning or that the Euromales are weaklings. It is the same reason that French women slept with German soldiers when their countrymen were proven to be cowardly and impotent at war.
Have none of these convert women ever seen "Not Without My Child"?
Just a little french humor. Heh.
It isn't a trend....that was my reference to thousands of burning cars. France is being engulfed by those who will destroy them; They abandoned God, and now 'Allah' is stepping up to teach the way to these morally bankrupt people.
No delusion here.....this is the future of America if the ACLU, atheists, and other affiliated groups have their way.
Historical footnote: On which side did the Muslims fight during World War II? You know the answer to that one.
No - there I disagree.
I would argue that they don't have a clue what Christianity is. Indeed, I would argue that almost no one I'm aware of has any idea either, BECAUSE ALMOST NO ONE HAS EVER SAT DOWN AND READ MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE, OR JOHN.
The degree of cultural [in this case biblical] illiteracy on the part of Westerners [Western Europe, Australia/New Zealand, North/South Americans, even church-going USA-ian "Christians"] is absolutely appalling.
And the sad thing is that a child could read M, M, L & J in little more than an afternoon - it's just about impossible to imagine that they [M, M, L & J] could have been more succinct than they were.
Well.....seeing as how European impotence is evident in the bedroom as well as in most other European endeavors, islamowench converts would breed like muzzirats, offering up their ovaries and eggs to better populate the madrassas's and al qaeda training camps with more homicide bombers, auto torchers and targets for American alpha soldiers to send to allah and their 72 Helen Thomas cloned "virgins".
Amen.
And right after the war, frenchmen boldly and courageously attacked the "collaborator" women in a way they'd never try with the Germans. Cowards.
Post 89 was meant for you.
and they will be screaming for US intervention - although I don't see how that plays out.
Terribly sad. And worse - having children with these men who now 'own' those kids (as well as the wife).
You must mean "72 virginians", from the conversation state.
This says more about the death of Christianity than it does about Islam. Those Euros are in deep doo-doo, I pray they WAKE UP!
They are doing it by abdicating their responsibilty to "the village", which placed its idiot in charge.
Any doubt what Hitlary has in mind? No; not Islam, but same principle.
