Europe: The Islamization of Christmas “An Unbearable, Unvoluntary Uubmission to Islam”
This year’s Christmas season has been marked by Islam-related controversies in nearly every European country. Most of the conflicts have been generated by Europe’s multicultural political and religious elites, who are bending over backward to secularize Christmas, ostensibly to ensure that Muslims will not be offended by the Christian festival. More troubling are the growing efforts to Islamize Christmas. The re-theologizing of Christmas has based on the false premise that the Jesus of the Bible is the Jesus (Isa) of the Koran. This religious fusion sometimes referred to as “Chrislam,” is gaining ground in a West that has become biblically illiterate.

Chrislam” – Europe Folds To The Islamization Of Christmas
“The word ‘Christmas,’ a symbol of our faith and our culture, does not discriminate against anyone.

Carson led the group in a respectful, uncontroversial prayer, thanking the Big Man upstairs “for a President and for cabinet members who are courageous, who are willing to face the winds of controversy in order to provide a better future for those who come behind us.” Carson gave thanks for “unity in Congress” and prayer for that unity to “spread even beyond party lines so that people recognize that we have a nation that is worth saving and recognize that nations divided against themselves cannot stand.” Who could find fault with that? Well, the liberals at ThinkProgress for one, who described the whole affair as “creepy” and “cult-like.”

Europe’s betrayal

Trump, Jerusalem, Arabs, Muslims
Trump’s declaration recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital city aroused, unsurprisingly, a massive wave of opposition in the Arab and Islamic world for two main reasons – one religious and one nationalist. The religious reason is rooted in Islam’s conception of itself as a faith whose mission is to bring both Judaism and Christianity to an end, inheriting all that was once Jewish or Christian: Land, places of worship and people. In Islam’s worldview, Falestin in its entirely belongs to Muslims alone because both Jews and Christians betrayed Allah when they refused to become followers of His prophet Mohammed, the punishment for that being expulsion from their land and the forfeiture of all rights to it.
