Frightening statistics

11/6/2009

In order to maintain the population level of a country the fertility rate must be 2.1 offspring per family.

In France it is 1.8; England 1.6; Germany 1.3; Greece 1.3; Italy 1.2. The average fertility rate for Europe is 1.3. However, the population of Europe is not declining. Why? Because of immigration. Europe is being populated by an influx of Muslims. Their fertility rate is 8.1 which makes Islam the fastest growing religion in Europe.

The situation in England is getting very tense. No one can mention the name of Jesus or talk about the Bible. Recently a hotel owner was talking to a Muslim guest about Jesus. She complained to the authorities and now he is being prosecuted and could face time in jail. This is not good for Christians in the rest of the world as well because most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy Jihad (Holy war) against the infidels of the world and, that by killing an infidel (which is a command to all Muslims) they are assured a place in heaven.

According to Islam, infidels are unbelievers. This means that Muslims are commanded to kill everyone who is not of their faith.

Imagine Pope Benedict commanding all Catholics to kill all Muslims, or the Archbishop of Canterbury commanding all Anglicans to do the same in order to guarantee them a place in heaven.
As a born-again Christian I have a problem with Islam when their clerics are telling their followers to kill me.

Let me end by asking them a question. “Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and He wants you to be there with me?”
