This is exactly why I, as a Mormon, have respect for Muslims. I can't expect me and my religion to be treated seriously unless I stand up for other misunderstood groups.
I wish that your people would try to understand gays. You mormons do a great job at demonizing the hell out of us.
Silly question Finn, at least according to some here. Amazing ain't it. I remember the same claims of a Muslim take over posted years ago on another site, by some of the same players. The scary part is know how some here would deal with the issue if it were up to them. Thankfully only a handful of people live in such fear and paranoia, I doubt it is a healthy, stress kills.

I'm sure that to someone who is gay, it must seem that "my people" are all alike, but I can assure you we're not. Personally, what you do in the privacy of your own bedroom is of no concern to me, and I do not oppose same-sex marriages, either. I can assure you, there are others like me.
On the other hand, a lot of people do a great job of demonizing the hell out of Mormons, so I know how it feels to be on the receiving end of hatred. It might be good for all people do a lot less stereotyping than they do.

Muslims have about ruined Europe now they have made a mass movement into that area.
Now we have to deal with this.
Muslims are welcome in America just like anyone else but knowing their history, they will be soon forcing their ways onto us and we will have to change to accommodate them.
Muslims like most illegals from Mexico do not want to be Americans like those who came to America many years ago. They want America to change to fit their ways and wants and not the other way around.
Europe is a perfect example of how Muslims have moved in and forced their ways onto a society.
Have you ever been to Europe? Can you see Russia from your back yard?

.....I do believe, in time, given a relatively normal time frame and un-eventful existence... yes... Muslims WILL bring about a change in society.

What I was attempting to imply (and apparently you seemed to miss it?) was that it's not as or won't be as drastic, sudden, and chaotic as people think.
I did catch the disclaimer of 'relatively normal time frame' but question what you consider a 'relatively normal time frame' -- a decade? a generation?
You do feel that Muslims, as their numbers grow, will bring about change, i.e. "Significant impact in terms of demographics and social influence."
What do you, as a Muslim, consider a "significant impact in terms of demographics and social influence" and please expand upong what you consider social influence. To some it might be the ability to obtain Halal products and easier access to a local mosque, to others it is the creation of Muslim only areas and Sharia law for Muslims within the US.
I'm french , I know my country.About race/ethnicities the freedom of speech doesn't exist, if you say one bad thing about arabs or blacks you go to jail.
What if an Arab or Black were to say something bad about a white or Asian?
