Obviously as your own link shows.....100,000 in a country of 62 million.

Do you know math?

.0016 of the population is such a small number I'm laughinh at how silly this post is.....LOL

I see your point, but it is a very vocal minority. Many Britons themselves think there is at least a small problem. And the truth is, some of these new devotees have become quite radical in the last decade.

Am i saying that Saladdin is coming to take over Britain? No...i'm just acknowledging a problem that Britain might want to address while it's still quite manageable.

Actually, the UK is becoming more secular and Christians along with Muslims are finding themselves a smaller and smaller minority.

What this right wing propaganda does is only compare the growth of Muslims to the growth of Christianity in Europe which as been on the decline for decades. Leaving out the largest sector which professes no religion.

That make it more scarier when they only tell you half the story.

The never tell their right wing lemmings here that both religions are on the decline in Europe among second generation immigrants.

Most of these cases are those in which women convert for marriage. Most likely neither partner is practicing though, just like all of the lapsed christians we have here.

Brighton huh? Nice town. My wife was a fight attendant and I would stay over on her layovers at the Brighton Thistle on numerous occasions.

Too bad it's been taken over by Muslim hordes....

I suppose that's the case reading these scary, informed posts from typical right wingers here in the USA.?

.....and after spending 13 straight years living in Europe, i agree wholeheartedly. One of the best things that i loved about Europe was empty churches and the rise of secularism.

If if you want real good news go to google where they have have population projections/birth rates for every Nation.

China, Mexico, the Middle East ....all the scary Nations supposedly giving us problems are in the midst of population declines or will be very soon.

Anything below the replacement rate of 2.2 is not increasing population.
