impressed for the first time, Buhari has to be careful, am his ardent supporter but he is allowing this herdsmen nonsense to ruin him

The article is on islam taking over Europe, its the same thing here in Nigeria where the northern muslims are bent on doubling their numbers every second if possible:

“In 10 years we will all be Muslims because of our stupidity,” declared Italian Monsignor Carlo Liberati recently. In an interview with Catholic journal La Fede Quotidiana, the archbishop emeritus of Pompeii lamented Western Europe’s transition into secularism and what may ultimately cause a transition back out of it: the influx of massive numbers of Muslim migrants into the West and these immigrants’ robust birthrates.

This trend was also noted by late Libyan leader Muammar Gadhafi, who said in 2006, “We have 50 million Muslims in Europe. There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe—without swords, without guns, without conquest—will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades.”

Of course, Archbishop Liberati was speaking loosely at best, and Gadhafi was speaking inaccurately but hopefully. Estimates in 2010 showed that Europe had 44 million Muslims; moreover, under current trends, the continent won’t be entirely Muslim in a few decades, and especially not in just one decade—though trends can change. The Pew Research Center reported last July that the Muslim share of the population throughout Europe has grown “about 1 percentage point a decade, from 4 percent in 1990 to 6 percent in 2010. This pattern is expected to continue through 2030, when Muslims are projected to make up 8% of Europe’s population.”
(Note: We could question these statistics’ accuracy. France, for example, prohibits the collecting of census information on race, ethnicity, or religion—making a calculation of the Muslim population difficult.)

Archbishop Liberati made the case that Western secularism and decadence have invited Islam’s rise; the idea being that a spiritual vacuum will draw in the only religious fire extant. Most secularists would counter that modernity will mold Europe’s Muslim generations as it has her Christian ones, with the siren of secularism slaying faith with science and reason. Tomorrow belongs to atheism.

Yet the findings of demographic and sociological science don’t actually back up that statement. Studies show that younger Muslim generations in Europe are actually more jihadist-oriented—some would say more pious—than their elders. There is, however, another factor that runs contrary to conventional wisdom.

Over the next few decades, the world in general will become more religious, not less so.

And Muslims—whose nations show little sign of decreasing religiosity—are growing faster than any other religious group.

Don’t tell Salon, which last year ran an article titled, “This is the end of marriage, capitalism and God. Finally!” This contrary perception is explainable by way of something moderns so often warn against: ethnocentrism. It is true that faith in the West has been dying out, but an important factor is missed: westerners are dying out, too.

Approximately 100 nations worldwide—including nearly every Western nation—have fertility rates below replacement level (2.1 children per woman). Israel, sometimes considered part of the West, appears the only exception.

Pew Research examined this matter in April 2016, writing, “To be clear, the total number of religiously unaffiliated people (which includes atheists, agnostics and those who say they have no particular religion on censuses and surveys) is expected to rise, from 1.1 billion in 2010 to 1.2 billion in 2050. But this growth is projected to occur at the same time that other religious groups—and the global population overall—are growing faster.”

“These projections,” Pew continued, “which take into account demographic factors such as fertility, age composition and life expectancy, forecast that people with no religion will make up about 13% of the world’s population in 2050, down from roughly 16% as of 2010. …This is largely attributable to the fact that religious “nones” are, on average, older and have fewer children than people who are affiliated with a religion.”

Moreover, here’s another item from the everything-you-thought-you-knew-is-wrong file: while Catholicism is declining in the U.S., its adherents are increasing worldwide slightly in excess of the rate of population growth.

Indeed, there is no historical example of a secular population perpetuating itself long term. As demographer Phillip Longman, a senior fellow at progressive think tank New America, wrote at NPR in 2011, “For whatever reasons, adherents to fundamentalism continue to have comparatively large families, while childlessness and single-child families are becoming the norm among those who do not feel themselves commanded by God ‘to go forth and multiply.’”

“The faithful thus begin to inherit society by default,” explained Longman, a soft-spoken man who has pointed out that he himself is not “churched.” “The West’s total population may fall or stagnate, perhaps for quite awhile; but those who remain will be disproportionately committed to God and family, whether they be Christians, Muslims, Jews, or members of new pro-natal faiths.”

So, the reports of religion’s death are largely exaggerated. Many see the present as a battle between secularism and religion and tomorrow as secularism’s alone. However, the future will be, as the past has been, simply a matter of which religion will prevail—and where.

Hmmm so for me to be a real Muslim i should start killing people too is that what you mean? United Arab Emirates is a Muslim populated country and have you ever hear of terrorism their?, Qatar, Kuwait,Oman etc all are Muslim countries and peaceful..


When will your likes started believing some people are Radical/Fanatic and ready to kill for anything and their act does not represent Islam..

I created a thread with one of my moniker before i was ban and it take about Christian terrorist..

https://www.nairaland.com/3579337/here-8-christian-terrorist-organizations

Now tell me Cultist that ready to kill their self what believes are they following?

But as widely read as you are you should have known that islam is peaceful in countries where they have 100% majority just like kuwait, saudi etc that you just mentioned, of course they create all the laws there and no one dare or even think of going against it, they have nothing to prove. Meanwhile in some other countries where they have majority they could have factional wars like shites/sunni nonsense. my brother i cant talk

ISTANDWITHBUHAR:
Even cultist in out university are doing it in his name.. hahahhaa


Let me tell you something, If someone want to fraud you, They will tell you what you will like to here..

When MMM want to deceive your likes, They tell you to bring 100k and you will get 130k in return and your likes believe them what happen later..

Religion fanatic are easy to believe..

I have seen Christian that was ask not to use tablet or go to hospital when they are sick and they believe..

I have seen christian that was ask not to own a TV set in their home and they believe. Tell what bible verse did they preach to them..

Most of those that have been brainwashed are not learned, Some of them don't go to school or know how to even read Quran. So what ever was interpret to them is what they will believe..

Why are those sending them does not go and commit the crime themselves?

Like i said we have fanatics who will do anything to recruit gullible to use them to attack Government..

Okay yesterday morning Boko Haram attak Mosque should we say they are Christian Boko haram? Mind you they attack mosque in other countries you mention too..

see i can see that u have a good soul and ready to learn but i don't even have time nowadays, see abdulmutallab was very very educated, he lived in a £4m mansion in central London yet he was willing to die just to kill others. Just last year a husband and wife in the US left their 6 month old only daughter at home to go kill clubgoers in their city, both of them were graduates. and dont go far i went to university in northeast Nigeria and i have seen the same attitude in students, lecturers and professors, this tendency to kill for their god. you see the fact that you even arguing with me shows that you are not a real Muslim because a real muslim would have only been enraged by now and ready to cut off my head. this is why BH started bombing mosques later on because they felt betrayed by fake muslims like u who rather than take up arms with them, resorted to defending islam as a religion of peace. shekau has said this in countless videos. see i u really have to go and think about yourself

u will be a runs girl when the time comes

ISTANDWITHBUHAR:
LOL maybe you need to check meaning of brainwashed, those people lack education and can easily be brainwashed to do what they are doing same way cultist are being brainwashed that they will have all the security they want on campus..


How about those Female suicide bombers what did they promise them?

why is the brainwashing been done in only one person's name - Mohammed? in Somalia, kenya, Nigeria, iraq, yemen, Afghanistan, Germany, France, US, so why only this name? even a daft person can understand this, what's wrong with u people's brain?

how are u without a sir is a pure sign of disrespect whether in Nigeria or on planet mars, it is silly to think u can say how are u to both ur mates and ur seniors in the same way. try it once in a while with ur employer and u will learn a valuable lesson

NNVanguard:
Publishing their names won't be out of place. That shows more transparency and truthfulness

God will bless u for that point but we all know they will never publish names

ISTANDWITHBUHAR:
I am a Muslim and i have never and will attack anyone all in the name of religion does that make me non believer?


When a christian do something bad it's called crime, But when a Muslim do something bad they call him terrorist..

no Christian kills and imagine for 1 second that Jesus will give him 2 virgins in heaven as reward, if a Christian kills he knows he kills because he is a murderer simple. You dont compare this with someone that kills with full conviction that Mohammed will reward him, pls use your head for the first time are they the same? am tired of explaining this 1 million times! dont u get it!

DeLioncourt:
In the 15th century, when Christians killed people who weren't Christians and accused women of witchcraft, burning them at stakes and stoning them, did anybody speak up? When Christians accused people of heresy for asking questions, were they asked to account for their actions?

M.I said there are crazy people in every religion and he is very correct. If you were being judged based on what the spanish inquisition did in europe, I don't think you'll consider it fair. That is my point.

Bear in mind that Adolf Hitler was a christian...and he committed what is still the gravest inhumanity to man in history.

muslims always defending their religion with 400 year old examples, always

sukkot:
i understand your shame. you rode in on a high horse correcting two people and feeling superior then you got corrected yourself and your ego cant handle the humiliation. i understand your pain. its OK. you will be sufficient. just read some more books so you dont embarrass yourself in a public forum

goodbye my papua Guinea of north america and Madagascar of Europe

sukkot:
And i repeat ? papua new guinea is not in australia. pick up a book sometime and read it. you may actually learn something

Just like Madagascar is part of the US too abi? if you were not a hopeless teenager common sense would have told you that geographical feature isnt the only thing that places countries, an island close to a continent is politically and administratively considered part of it which is why it will confuse you why Madagascar comes for All Africa games

sukkot:
bros, papua new guinea is not in australia. this is exactly what you said. lets even put the continent issue aside. YOU SAID PAPUA NEW GUINEA IS IN AUSTRALIA. you are wrong. papua new guinea is separate from australia. they are two different places with two different land masses. YOU ARE WRONG. accept defeat and move on with ya life

this is what you said >>>>

still poor education at work and poor home training. am sure England is not in Europe by your definition since it is a different landmass. if u were not born after year 2000 you would have known about Australia as a continent. and u must be an exceptional morooon to continue to insist that Guinea is closer to the US than Australia, smh

sukkot:
brah stop being dull. papua new guinea is one half of the island called new guinea and it has absolutely nothing to do with australia. australia is a continent on its own. these are islands separate from australia. i study world maps. so please do not spread your confusion because your ego is bruised that i corrected you

u must have definitely bruised the ego of world atlas too;

www.worldatlas.com/cntycont.htm

and countless sources. u see what ur shallow mind does not allow you know is that the position that oceania isnt a continent is not a globally accepted notion. National geographic explains that geographers in some countries NOT ALL!

and to come to the point of the discussion- i corrected a guy that claimed Papua Guinea was in the US and i said Australia continent, so what is your hopeless point about? or u also accept it's in the US?

this is not a new bwnz car, this Mercedes was made before the op was born, this is a 1994-6 Mercedes car for God's sake

sukkot:
they are islands. they are on their own in the ocean. small islands. they are on no continent

hahahahaha, this is serious, okay since u couldn't even use google, Papua Guinea, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, are all in a continent called Australia or Australasia or Oceania depending on what year you were born, for those born more recently Oceania is now more popular. Being an island dosent place you outside a continent. UK is actually not in the continent of Europe but it's a European country all the same. Hope u okay now?

sukkot:
no it is not in australia, it is in the indian and pacific ocean.

what continent is Papua New Guinea?

fool at 43

Worksunlimited:
See your life... If it's in Australia, why would they still add Australia wouldn't be hit by the tsunami..?

When they have posited it would hit papua new guinea..

Australia as a continent not the country, what more can i do for these alaba shopkeepers on nairaland?

Worksunlimited:
Dude.. It's not the new guinea in Africa that the article is referring to but the one in the United States..

poor education everywhere, papua Guinea is in Australia

hopefulLandlord:
hmmm

Faith is not that necessary

The story of the man at the beautiful gate shows this



as we can see the man had no faith about being healed only wanted money and it should be pointed out that he asked Peter like he asks every passer by

anyways Christianity is one contradictory bullsheeet that's why we have over 3000 Christian denominations, leaders of each denomination claim to have a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit and say they're telling the truth even calling other denominations as doomed while backing up his claim with verses in the same bible

each one claims to talk to the holy spirit but they never seem to agree on what that holy spirit wants

its all makebelieve

hahahahaha, impressed

PaperLace:
Naso.
Whereas na una create thread pass. Go family section see your people

1)My wife is not giving me.
2)My wife is pregnant, how will I cope?
3)My wife is always with the baby, no time for me.,
4)My wife is using my high sex drive to her advantage.

See as the thing humble this your man: https://www.nairaland.com/3569334/she-uses-high-sexual-drive#52749526

not all men, not even close, some men rather starve their wives of sex. i have never seen reason to beg for sex because i know how badly women need it too and if you call their bluff they quickly turn around to beg

[quote author=pocohantas post=52941244]There are so many broke men that are married and in relationships. Enough of this money talk.
How many Nigerian men are even rich? With this our bad economy and unemployment rate. [/quot


is true most men think about women and most women think of nothing else but men. until recently when chidinma exposed young girls no young boy knew ladies crave having sex including you pocahontas. so pls lets accept what is obvious

poor education is the reason for loneliness, if you are educated and have traveled before you will never again assume that all unmarried people over 40 are lonely. if you have goals to pursue and you have challenges to stand up to you wont remember you are lonely. you see am always disappointed when in 2017 a youth who should be having big dreams like the mark zuckerbergs of this world, the Elon Musk, the People that have changed this world, is busy thinking about how to avoid loneliness then u can see how backward africa will remain for the next thousand years. if you know how long of focused effort and attention it takes to change your own little corner of the world then you will probably understand why marriage is just optional in developed societies. pls our young people try to think big, read books about other worlds, open your mind and get exposed, stop focusing on marriage because the pastor told you its the only reason for existence. nigerian pastors happen to be experts in almost every area of endeavor from law, to medicine, to finance, and unfortunately the poor level of education of most churchgoers creates a fertile ground for disarming gullibility. someone said it here recently that in Nigeria it is assumed everybody will be married, everybody will have kids, and everybody will make it big time otherwise there are witches at work. pathetic

the level of illiteracy in this country is alarming, this is a helicopter for God's sake

from his flat head we already know where he comes from. and when Italian police begin to work on nigerians in italy they will be the first to shout "they hate us"

dragonking2:
Am sure they also blew up kanji dam and the coal plant that also generates power abi? Learn to use the brain given to you

if u read engineering u wouldn't have opened ur mouth this wide, u wud have asked what the possible causes of a system collapse can be, smh

obailala:
I am squarely facing the present, but I wish I would not be distracted by wailers who keep bringing up the past and reminding us of how the country was supposedly 'paradise' when a group of persons were mindlessly squandering mega-bucks meant for infrastructural development. Today we have next to nothing to show for several years of mega-income; no refineries built, no roads completed, over $8.5 billion spent on power but we still have about the most epileptic power supply worldwide. Today possibly over 60% of Nigeria's forex is wasted importing fuel, and even this thread discusses the terrible state of our power infrastructure. And then some of the glorifiers of these folks shamelessly accuse the present guys who recently just took power and who hardly have a dime to work of being the cause of the problem?

How do you expect me to feel when someone keeps reminding me of these unforgivable things I keep trying to forget?

my brother dont expect any flat skulled Ugandan jew to understand the simple and obvious facts you just gave, i have come to totally disregard them as rational beings both the ones that attended school and the ones at alaba market, they reason exactly the same way and shockingly they think they make objective sense, smh

klassicview:
Fashola was supposed to have fixed the power sector 6months ago as APC promised. Or is he no longer incharge of the ministry of darkness?

is fixing power the same as fixing blown pipelines by your relatives?

Boleyndynasty2:
Asides from gas, aren't there other means to generate electricity abi power?

do u change to other sources in matter of hours? so if your brothers are busy blowing pipelines u expect the govt to switch to other soures after just 30mins abi?

laudate:
Hehehe.... bros you should know these guys by now. The default setting in the brain of an average IPOBian is configured to scream the word "Afonja," whenever anyone disagrees with their myopic point of view. It doesn't matter if he is Gwari, Tiv, Urhobo, Okirika, Sayyawa, Fulani or Junkun.

But whenever they want to embark on territorial expansion, they then plot the graph of their proposed republic to include Igala, Idoma, Ebira etc., and a few other northern minorities into their fake map, without the permission of those ethnic groups. Just watch.

i personally blame Gowon my brother, if these people were allowed to go we would have solved a great part of our problem. if you see the way nigerians are embarrassed at airport security checkpoints around the world you will feel like strangling these Igbos that rubbish our name everywhere. Am really surprised how this kind of culture of criminality could have even emerged here in Africa

how dumber can these journalists be? how will people learn if u don't tell them how the accident happened? only in Nigeria you read that accident killed people without explanation on how they actually died! pls its not enough to say accident killed people! too many dumb people in this country
