Bill Muehlenberg: "The Islamic Kingdom of Britain "
I and others have been warning for years now that the once Christian West is quickly dissipating, with a muscular Islam easily overcoming the effeminate and spineless Christian churches. Everywhere we see Islam on the rise and Christianity on the retreat.
I have spoken before about how many churches in the UK are now Muslim mosques. I have spoken before about how England seems to be gaining as many mosques as it is losing churches. I have spoken before about how there was just one mosque in London in 1960, but there are many hundreds of them today.
Plenty of voices have warned about this, but most of these warnings have fallen on deaf ears. Melanie Phillips for example wrote her very important book Londonistan back in 2006. In it she said, “Britain is currently locked into such a spiral of decadence, self-loathing and sentimentality that it is incapable of seeing that it is setting itself up for a cultural immolation.”
I concluded my review of her volume with these words: “Religious extremism cannot be ignored, denied or appeased. It must be confronted. But an anaemic Britain which has abandoned its heritage and embraced its enemies is in no condition to fight. Fear of Islamophobia and a loss of belief in itself have paralysed Britain, preventing it from taking the sensible and necessary steps to defend itself.
“Phillips concludes by offering some practical steps as to how Britain can turn things around. It is a nation at the crossroads. It can learn from its mistakes, regroup, and move on. Or it can continue down the path of appeasement and denial, and simply wither on the vine. A choice must be made, and a book like this helps us all to decide which way we will proceed.”

And of course just weeks ago we had an English soldier disembowelled and beheaded in broad daylight on the streets of London by Muslims screaming “Allahu Akbar”. Yet we have not learned any lessons from 9/11, or Bali, or Boston, or London. We have not listened to prophetic voices like Melanie Phillips.
So things continue apace, with the Islamisation of Britain, Europe, America and the rest of the West moving along nicely. But ignore my voice if you will. Ignore Melanie if you will. Consider instead what the British government is telling us in its own surveys.
The headline to a report on this ought to shake all of us out of our complacency: “Britain may be an Islamic nation within 20 years”. The article begins: “Way back in 2003 an article in a British newspaper warned about a growing fear that the U.K. was on a fast track to becoming an Islamic nation. That was just ten years ago, and it seemed far fetched at the time. Now the British government has published a study with data that shows Islam will become the dominant religion within the next generation.
