"This is also the result of a post-Christian world view in Europe. It has been said that when you don't believe in God, you 'll believe in anything."

Can you support this, with statistics proving that Europe is:

a. No longer Christian?

b. People there don't believe in God?

I observe folks throwing around things, like the words you use, as if it is a fact. I doubt it can be supported, but maybe you can prove me wrong.

Go do your own research. Anyone who has followed European culture, including church attendance and polls indicating beliefs in standard Christian doctrines, is aware that Europe is NOT a Christian continent, not by the standards of belief or practice.

Christianity is not an inherited religion. It is a practiced religion.

Having a Baptisimal certificate is not evidence that one is a Christian.

The fact that you are unaware of the spiritual state of Europe is an indication that you are not a practicing Christian. I don't have the time or inclination to search the web to prove something to someone who is obviously so uneducated on the subject. I suggest googling some poll takers on religion for a start.

For anyone familiar with Europe, my statement is not controversial at all.
