It isn't that you believe in nothing, but that you'll actually believe just about anything:

Italian journalist and Muslim convert to Catholicism, Magdi Allam, warned this week that Islam is growing as a result of the ideology of relativism that pervades the West and claims that there are many truths instead of one unique Truth.

In an article published by the magazine Mundo Cristiano and quoted by Analisis Digital, Allam explained that relativism, which attributes “equal dignity to everything regardless of the content” has made it possible for extremism and Islamic terrorism “to be introduced and to take root” in Europe, to the point that there are Islamic extremists with European citizenship who “act upon and spread an ideology of hatred and violence.”

Likewise, Allam, who was recently baptized by Benedict XVI, said it was impossible to be a moderate Muslim, because the religion of Islam is “physiologically violent, as confirmed by certain verses from the Koran that defend an ideology of hatred, violence, death and condemnation of those who are not Muslims. This way of thinking comes from Mohammed,” Allam said, adding that Islam is an “intrinsically violent” religion.

Asked about his conversion to the faith, Allam said he was convinced by the preaching and testimony of Benedict XVI, whose “strong affirmation of the relationship between faith and reason as a foundation for understanding the authenticity of true religion” fascinated him.

These oh, so advanced Europeans with their Euro-Cool indifference to the great questions of theology and ideology...they might think they are blazing a path to a future of peace and equity, but what they are actually doing is paving - with good intentions, it goes without saying - a road to hell in which Europe, to survive, might have to fight a cruel civil war with an indigestible Islamist minority determined on conquest.

You have to believe - faith does, indeed, move mountains...without faith, you are just a jellyfish; easy prey for anyone who comes along who has a backbone. The Islamists believe - that they believe something we consider wrong and, indeed, downright stupid doesn't matter - the Nazis and Communists believed wrong things which were downright stupid, too...but the world had to pay a very steep price to get rid of them. We have to pay a price to get rid of the Islamists, too - but those who believe in nothing won't pay the price, and thus will eventually find themselves up against a wall, forced to choose between death and conversion.

Europe must return to its Christian roots - only thusly can Europe expell the Islamists in their midst. Charles Martel once lived - does his spirit still live anywhere in Europe? The next 20 years will tell the tale, one way or the other.
