[traditionalist]

Traditionalist: Since Western people were able to hold and develop their beliefs, and hence build a great civilization, at least partly because they were Christian, does it not stand to reason that mass immigration of non-Christian people into Western lands coupled with massive decreases in Christians' birth rates (not to mention apostasy rates) threatens Western Civilization?

garbanzo But many of them are Christian - Mexicans are typically Catholic or Evangelical and Asians are quite often Catholic or Protestant.

I was mainly refering to the situation in Europe, where 90+% of all immigrants are either Muslim or pagan. Recall that Pat is addressing the situation in the whole of Western Christendom, not just the U.S.

It is true nearly all Meztizo immigrants to the US are Christian. What's interesting is the high percentage of Meztizos who lose the faith after arriving, or the large numbers of Catholics who leave Mother Church and become Pentacostals. Immigration is definitely not good for Meztizo souls.

However, as I mentioned in my last post, there is a lot more to Western Civilization than Christianity, and it is these other factors that make mass immigration of Meztizos into the US a threat to Western Civilization. I will discuss these other matters in a later post, after the good Earl has had some time to think about them. (And no, they have nothing do to with skin color).
