As the Archbishop of Canterbury urges Britons to accept sharia law, it’s refreshing to hear a prelate talking common sense.
Czech Cardinal Miloslav Vlk, the Archbishop of Prague, said Muslims were well placed to fill the spiritual void “created as Europeans systematically empty the Christian content of their lives”.
“Europe will pay dear for having left its spiritual foundations and that this is the last period that will not continue for decades when it may still have a chance to do something about it,” he said.
“The Muslims definitely have many reasons to be heading here. They also have a religious one – to bring the spiritual values of faith in God to the pagan environment of Europe, to its atheistic style of life.
“Unless the Christians wake up, life may be Islamised and Christianity will not have the strength to imprint its character on the life of people, not to say society.” (Apologies for the translation, but we hope you get the gist)
The 77-year-old cardinal made his remarks in an interview to mark his retirement after spending 19 years as the leader of the Czech Church.
He said he did not blame Muslims for the crisis as Europeans had brought it upon themselves by exchanging their Christian culture for an aggressive secularism that embraced atheism.
“Europe has denied its Christian roots from which it has risen and which could give it the strength to fend off the danger that it will be conquered by Muslims, which is actually happening gradually,” he said.
“At the end of the Middle Ages and in the early modern age, Islam failed to conquer Europe with arms. The Christians beat them then.
“Today, when the fighting is done with spiritual weapons which Europe lacks while Muslims are perfectly armed, the fall of Europe is looming.”
He called on Christians to respond to the threat of Islamisation by living their own religious faith more observantly.
Last year Cardinal Jose Policarpo, the Patriarch of Lisbon, warned Catholic women against marrying Muslims.
Italian Cardinal Giacomo Biffi also urged the Italian government to give priority to Catholic migrants over Muslims in order to protect his country’s religious identity.
The Vatican has also opposed Turkey joining the European Union partly because the Muslim country does not share the continent’s Christian heritage.
Is anyone in the Church of England listening?
GIUSEPPE DE SANTIS
What are these tiresome clerics banging on about? Europeans are being deliberately genocided by a neo-Marxist political establishment. As a universalist religion, Christianity is unlikely to provide the moral/spiritual framework Europeans will need if they are to break free from the genocidal forces which are destroying them. Indeed, it is the Churches which have been in the vanguard of preaching diversity, the evils of "racism" and generally inculcating a sense of racial guilt in Europeans.
Here is one cleric who obviously believes in the great Christian battle hymn "Ein' feste Burg ist unser Gott – A Mighty Fortress is our God." Although a reformation hymn it is now a suggested hymn for catholic masses i.e. it is for all Christians. One cleric who has begun to fight back!
come on you church of england loosers, get your finger out god wants to help you, but you have to do it yourself, not only will you have empty churches you will be forced to attend the mosque thats what lies in store if you don't wake up and smell the coffee.
