It is only a matter of time before the Judeo-Christian laws as you and I know them are changed to Islamic law.I won't be alive to see it, neither will as many of them as possible.

If she had been wearing a burqa this would not have happened.
Did she actually get into a taxi with Muslims? That would be practically inviting rape even for a male, much less a French female.

You could have made a similar prognostication at the beginning of 732 AD (before the Battle of Tours) or, perhaps, even as late as 1683 (the last siege of Vienna). But, it didn't happen. And, I think, it shall not happen. I think it more likely that we will end up putting paid to the Islamist regimes in the middle east and that Islam will fade into insignificance. Fascism looked strong, Stalinism and Maoism looked strong. The West has had dark days, but it has held. Europe may be exhausted, but America can meet the challenge.So tell me, what will it take for the Arabs to become christianized, and for the Jihad to end?
To: sweetliberty
Christianity is still the fastest growing religion and is expected to be so by a larger margin over the next decades, however it is NOT growing in the west by much.It ain't a white thing anymore, it's a black thing now.
People are converting to christianity in droves in Africa and Islam is only growing due to its high birth rate.
I believe that the next pope should be from Africa. We need to reach out to Catholics in the Third World, rather than secular Europeans.
To: MinorityRepublican
You want an honest opinion ? The utter destruction of the Islamic world, followed by the forced relocation of surviving young Arab children (i.e. 6 or so and younger) to be raised in more civilized societies. . .

You have to admit that this incident could have been avoided. Also, I don't see anything in this article saying
that the men were Muslims. In fact, their religion or
nationality is not identified.

He didn't say she deserved to be raped.
All he said was her actions were stoopid and it shouldn't come as a complete surprise that she got raped.
Kinda like if I leave a big tub of paint cantilevered off of a high shelf. I should not expect that everyone in my family is safe from paint falling on them at some point in the near future. They certainly don't deserve it, but it is certainly within the realm of probability that someone is going to get a bucket of paint dropped on their head really soon.

Actually there was a report on Fox last night about that saying that it simply is not true and that Christianity is still the fastest growing religion and is expected to be so by a larger margin over the next decades, however it is NOT growing in the west by muchI hope that is true, maybe thats the root cause of this war. The muslims must know it and can't stand the fact that Christianity is spreading.
To: expatguy
Another viewpoint:
FOX News did a report a couple of days ago about how the widely perceived notion that Islam is such a fast growing religion, largest (or soon to be) worldwide, etc. is just a bunch of NYTimes Liberal/Dim BS aimed at discrediting Christianity.
I believe the FOX report.

"Accepting a ride home from a nightclub with three strangers isn't the brightest thing a woman can do. What follows shouldn't come as a complete surprise..."
I would agree that this is not a wise move, but if the guys then decide to rape her, her poor judgment doesn't make them any less guilty of the crime.

You equate getting hit with a bucket of paint to being raped? Wow.

HaHaHaHaHaHa.
Couldn't have happened to a better target. The Frenchies have always been formost, along with the Krauts, in pandering to the lunatic ragheads.
If the Frenchies had any balls left (and they don't) they'd raid the "country" of Dubai and rescue their countrywoman with a foreign legion type manoeuver. Maybe if they were reall nice and apologized abjectedly, the Israelis, real men, would show them how its done.

You equate getting hit with a bucket of paint to being raped? No I didn't. Reread the thread of conversation. The sub-topic of the thread started by Stallone/Movemout wasn't rape, per se, but understanding that some choices we make endanger ourselves or others, and should arguably be known to endanger ourselves or others. [ I say arguably because I am open to suggestions that she shouldn't have felt any danger
Just like Stallone didn't say that she deserved to be raped just because he figured that she should have known the danger of her choice, I didn't equate rape with a paint covering.
Try not to let your emotions get in the way of your participation in the rational discourse on this website.

I agree that you can enhance your probability of being assaulted by your own actions. I can't say for sure that this woman didn't contribute to her own assault in some way. I can say that just because you are ignorant doesn't mean that you should be assaulted. At the least, that is the case here.

Bright Like A Thousand Suns. Many Megatons. Large, glass lots to provide convenient parking to the wonders of the Ancient East. Many missionaries from all denominations - from Apostolic Holiness to Zion Four Square Reformed. Many generations.
To: expatguy
Nope, Christianity is the fastest growing.
