Everyone who considers themselves a part of Western Civilization should read the prophetic book, "Camp of the Saints" by Jean Raspail. It was first published in France in 1973, and was just recently translated into English. I'm almost finished with it and it's stunning in it's accuracy of predicting what is now happening. The author even named his ficticious pope, Benedict XVI. He also had the leftists down pat.

Within 25-50 years there will be no Western Civilization. Even Russia is being invaded.

Russia is not part of the "Western" Civilisation -- it, along with a lot of Eastern Europe is part of the Slavic/Orthodox civilisation. "Western" Civilisation started to decline when it broke away from the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church will continue as it still remains in the hearts of Europeans, Americans, Asians, Africans etc. Perhaps a decadent post-Christian civilisation will disappear but the Christian Civilisation (that includes Russia, Latin America, Central America, Asia, Europe, Africa etc.) will remain.
