U.K. Pastors Are Growing Beards for an Unexpected Reason (CofE Dhimmitudes)
TakePart.com ^ | January 22, 2016 | Liz Dwyer

These days most guys who grow long, bushy beards get labeled as hipsters trying to morph into microbrewing lumberjacks from the 1890s. But the laughing wink and nod folks give to the hairy, Portlandia-style stereotype isn’t always extended when the men growing the beards are Muslim—or perceived to be Muslim.

This is really sick and they’re at risk of BIH for it.

Insane europeans will live to regret welcoming their Islamic caliphate enslavers.
How many years do you give the EU til Muslim dominance, 2030?

I hate seeing people laying down and waving the white flag before the fight.

All the muslims have to do is somehow get them to recite that little prayer that makes them a full-blooded muslim.

How much do you wanna bet they all will recite it during their interfaith luncheons?

How can Europeans be such fools about Muslims?
(or Americans, for that matter. The sucker punch of 9/11 taught us nothing)

We’ve got our own problems with 44% of Americans:
“Meanwhile, in the United States, 56 percent of Americans say the values of Islam are at odds with America’s values and way of life”

Beards won’t protect their throats from sharp Muslim knives.

These so-called Christians have no idea that Muslims actually laugh at them for doing things like this. Muslims see this as a sign of weakness, not solidarity. The rest of us see it that way, too.

They are expected to shut up, lay back and enjoy it.

Courtesy of the Religion of Peace and neutered, wimp, culturally castrated "men" of Europe.

True.

They’ve spent the last few decades sucking up to feminists and gays and their derivatives and now they’re going to toss them overboard just so they can love the muzzies into killing them last.

I've noticed a growing trend of pro athletes growing beards and men in general copying them.

I don't like them because they all remind me of ISIS........

Infiltration, good idea - but I doubt they can pull it off.

Solidarity? Try going to a Muslim country and preach Jesus Christ openly on the street and see how far that solidarity will get you.

This is how they will fall, not by war, by capitulation.

Next up, halal food and dress restrictions on women.

I recall an interview with on of the extremist imams in London saying they don’t need to invade. “We will breed muslim babies, your daughters will be our wives, and your sons will grow beards.”
