Pierre Legrand’s Pink Flamingo Bar

Al Qaeda was ejected from Afghanistan because we didn’t want them to have a base and safe haven from which to attack us. Then we went to war with Iraq because of the possibility that he might give his WMD’s to the terrorists he was supporting. Given the demographic nightmare (see Mark Steyn’s America Alone The End of the World as We Know It!) occurring in England when do we go to war with them? You laughing? Think I am loony? Check this article from the Church Of England.

Religious trends and our religious future

If recent reports of trends in religious observance prove to be correct, then in some 30 years the mosque will be able to claim that, religiously speaking, the UK is an Islamic nation, and therefore needs a share in any religious establishment to reflect this. The progress of conservative Islam in the UK has been amazing, and it has come at a time of prolonged decline in church attendance that seems likely to continue.

Guess some of the folks preaching the religion of multiculturalism are smiling about my worry of an Islamic Nation with Nuclear Submarines and Nuclear Missiles and Nuclear Weapons in general.  After all what is so bad about an Islamic Nation having nuclear weapons. Pakistan has them.

This progress has been enthusiastically assisted by this government in particular with its hard-line multi-cultural dogma and willingness to concede to virtually every demand made by Muslims. Perhaps most importantly the government has chosen to allow hard-liners to act as representing all Muslims, and more liberal Muslims have almost completely failed to produce any leadership voices to compete, leading many Britons to wonder if there are indeed many liberal Muslims at all, surely a mistake.

Wait just a moment! Didn’t “famous” American blogger’s like Dean Esmay and Bill from INDC claim that Islam was moderate? Didn’t Bush claim that we only had to allow them the vote and liberal democratic Republics would be standing up all over the Middle East.

At all levels of national life Islam has gained state funding, protection from any criticism, and the insertion of advisors and experts in government departs national and local. A Muslim Home Office adviser, for example, was responsible for Baroness Scotland’s aborting of the legislation against honour killings, arguing that informal methods would be better. In the police we hear of girls under police protection having the addresses of their safe houses disclosed to their parents by Muslim officers who think they are doing their religious duty.

Honor killings…sounds so noble. Such a noble religion for killing young women. Such a moderate religion…such a moderate philosophy.

While men-only gentlemen’s clubs are now being dubbed unlawful, we hear of municipal swimming baths encouraging ‘Muslim women only’ sessions and in Dewsbury Hospitals staff waste time by turning beds to face Mecca five times a day — a Monty Pythonesque scenario of lunacy, but astonishingly true. Prisons are replete with imams who are keen to inculcate conservative Islam in any inmates who are deemed to be culturally ‘Muslim’: the Prison service in effect treats such prisoners as a cultural block to be preached to by imams at will. Would the Prison service send all those with ‘C of E’ on their papers to confirmation classes with the chaplain?! We could go on.

So then when do we attack?

The point is that Islam is being institutionalised, incarnated, into national structures amazingly fast, at the same time as demography is showing very high birthrates. Charles Taylor’s new and classic work on the Secular Age charts the rise of the secular mindset and what he calls the ‘excarnation’ of Christianity as it is levered out of state policy and structures. Christianity is now regarded as bad news, the liberal elite’s attack developed in the 1960s took root in the educationalist empire, and to some extent even in areas of the church.

Aren’t liberals fun?

Today the Christian story is fading from public imagination, while Islam grows apace. There needs to be some fresh thinking in this area where the claims of Christ are sensitively explained. Our church leaders must develop ways of explaining this, as our feature on mission and evangelism this week demonstrates. Church of England News - Editorial

Well gee a radical Islamic nation with Nuclear Weapons and the means to deliver them. What could go wrong?
