Not too much of a shock. Of course the Brits as well as the rest of Europe better find Allah soon or they'll get converted the hard way once the demographics change it to EurArabia...

What can u expect from my country. We have voted for the last three times for a left wing bunch of reds......

Who are that liberal in their beliefs that the family unit is no longer of any concern, and basically anything goes......

Labour is at least as right as the Tories at the moment. Well in places. They seem to shift from facist to communist depending on the issue.

[Crazed Rabbit]

He spoke warmly of the West's debt to the culture of Islam

Hmmm. I don't know about Europe, but forcing women to be virtual slaves and wear burkas hasn't caught on in the US yet.

i think he might be talking about the influence on the renaissance, art, literature, maths and philosophy.

the perception that Islam is all burqas and slavery is the exact thing the Prince is trying to combat.

Labour is no way as right as the Torys....

All you have to do is look at the idea of taxation to understand that.

Yeah But since it was not a random sample, its findings do not represent a statistically valid barometer of British opinion.

I am soooooo worried about something that is not valid .

Of course the Brits as well as the rest of Europe better find Allah soon or they'll get converted the hard way once the demographics change it to EurArabia...

Demographics Can you explain the demographics ?

Oh no the BBC is going to broadcast in Arabic to .....oh the middle -east

[mystic brew]

Right.
I'm at a loss as to how you cobble together this sequence of articles to a belief that the UK will become a part of the united states of islam.

Riots in france mean what exactly? it's hardly a mass movement.

And on the statistics front
Muslims are 2.8 % of the UK population.
it hardly seems likely that Muslims can outbreed the rest of the UK population in 20 years!
Equally 77.3% of the UK profess some theist belief. so brits are godless how?

The BBC World service is simply moving with the times... the world service has always broadcast across the world. But with satelite television, al-jazeera and the like appearing and gathering an increasing market share, the BBC has decided to move to a TV service that fairly and accurately reports the TV news in the region...
The world service is viewed worldwide as a genuinely unbiased news source.

and, from the article...
"It is understood that Prince Charles did not - and does not - believe that the actions of 19 hijackers should tarnish the reputation of hundreds of millions of law-abiding Muslims around the world."

Gosh, thats the UK caving in to Muslim extremism how?

and, finally, i should point out that...
"A 1996 Gallup poll reported that 71% of the United States' population believed that the government was covering up some information about UFOs" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UFO

UFO's over god??? The US surely deserves everything that it gets ;)

[ShadesPanther]

And on the statistics front
Muslims are 2.8 % of the UK population.

The way the media and the government puts it youd think it was 28%

and, from the article...
"It is understood that Prince Charles did not - and does not - believe that the actions of 19 hijackers should tarnish the reputation of hundreds of millions of law-abiding Muslims around the world."

Well Poor Charlie has no real political power so basically he can believe whatever he wants and it won't matter.

I strongly suspect that Devastatin Dave’s flagrant Islamophobia may be related to his secret desire to convert.

I wonder which other of his phobias can be explained that way

Funny. I didn't see anything about a phobia anywhere. But it seems some like to marginalize any who think differently by saying they have an irrational fear, even if they have no fear at all.

Islamic scholars did contribute some to math, but Greeks had already done lots of the pre-calc math, which was discovered, of course, by Isaac Newton.

Geometry, again done mainly by the Greeks.

The alphabet was invented thousands of years before Islam existed. And many were in use in Europe by 600 AD. All we use are the symbols for numbers.

Yes our system of numbers is the only thing we got from them. And we all know that means nothing.

And remind me where algebra comes from? An Islamic mathematician named al-Jabr (hence the name, from his name also comes the word 'gibberish').

I’m sharpening my scimitar right now. Europeans beware, us Muslim savages are breeding like rats and our ultimate goal is the complete overthrow of western civilization... and/or eating children...

[ShadesWolf]

eating children

u mean u still eat children

[Kanamori]

The Qu'ran demands it. They are only following their religion...



Same old stuff.

[mystic brew]

so the Health and Safety Executive and the Qu'ran agree?

damn.

perhaps i can find a way to undermine the coming islamic superstate with the Work and Pensions Quango.

i shall look into it

[mystic brew]

yeah, but you are only allowed to eat our babies if they are slaughtered in sanitary conditions and in a Halal manner.

you may impose Sharia law, but the Health and safety executive will still rule!

Finally, none of the above are 'cultural' things. They are scientific things. Oddly enough, Islam and the Arab world has contibuted little in the way of science for the last several centuries.

If anything racial tensions will explode well before religion becomes an issue. Anyway the conversion of Europe to Islam could only mean two things. First that the majority of the population are already Muslim, in which case fair enough. Secondly that Christianity has lost the battle for our souls and is a dying religion. To the Pope I say "your powers are weak, old man".
