    There is a big difference though. Their beliefs were compatible with Americans, everyone believed in Jesus, not killing people and such. And most importantly, the next generation mingled and married locals and they were almost fully assimilated by the third generation.

    Where I live, and other places, most of the Muslim population (not all, mind you) keep their children from others as much as possible. The children are taught what they can and can’t do because they are Muslim. And they can only marry Muslims (conversions are allowed but the family must live Muslim lives under those rules. They are not allowing natural assimilation. Places like Denmark have laws forcing immigrant children to attend day care with locals, because otherwise they won’t.

      Okay, but they’re still a tiny minority. They will not be implementing sharia law in Europe any time in the foreseeable future because they just won’t have that power.

      Also, if you’re going to say belief in Jesus is a requirement for being European, you’re going to have to do something about the Jews who live there too. And considering they’ve lived there for thousands of years, maybe that isn’t a defining characteristic of Europeans.

        Nobody said they will. But they WANT to. Read my original text and please reply to the points that I ACTUALLY made, instead of putting words in my mouth…

          Your words:

          Their beliefs were compatible with Americans, everyone believed in Jesus

          Jews don’t believe in Jesus. Did they want to take over America? Did they want to take over Germany?

            You fcking dare talk about taking over germany?

            There is a saying, IF YOU KNEW PEOPLES PROBLEMS, YOU WOULD SYMPATHISE WITH THEIR EXTREMIST WAYS. yes the Jewish sect followers were very much visibly in charge of a very large part of the German (visible) economy in 1920-1930s Germany, stores, banks, factories, etc. if you know how many poor people stood in line for thin soup, you’d understand how they would be voting for either comunist or other extremists (such as our failed Austrian painter)
