Revolting!

Reading the comments on various blogs about the impending Mohammedan invasion is driving me up the wall. We have a lot of Americans who are either treasonously defeatist or, even worse, gloating over the perceived Mohammedan takeover of Europe. One thing that is particularly striking is the level of ignorance on display, mostly a result of repeating things heard without any first-hand evidence.

Example number one: Christianity is dead in Europe. No one goes to mass. We have heard this chestnut over and over, but is it really true? Perhaps in the barbarian transalpine lands it is. I have not been over the Alps in quite some time, so I cannot say, but in Italy last year we only went to one mass that was less than standing-room-only full, and that mass was at the same time that the neighboring town had a large festival, which drew just about everyone away for the day.

Where are people getting these ideas? I think from the Liberal media, who have a vested interest in portraying the people as turning away from the Faith. Then the "conservatives" use them as a banner to warn the folks on the home front.

The problem is that it becomes incredibly defeatist. No Catholic should ever see the triumph of Mohammedanism as an inevitability, in fact, should recoil and foam at the mouth at the mere suggestion of it, or, even better, should think about what needs to be done about it (I am open to suggestions). The Faith could be stronger in Europe, but I don't think it is as bad as one would believe from reading the doom and gloomers.

One thing that we must remember is that we are part of Europe. No Europe, no America. We stand in absolute common cause with the Mother Continent. If Rome falls, we all fall. In the not-so-long run, I am fairly sure of the inevitability of a long and bloody war against Mohammedanism, and the fall of Mohammedanism into a local cult in Arabia and remote mountainous regions of Central Asia. If not in our lifetimes, in Amalia's lifetime, Mohammedanism will cease to be a significant force in world affairs.

In the meanwhile, the West will have some serious thinking to do on the nature of religious freedom and what it means to extend such freedom to those who have absolutely no intention of returning the favor.

For the entire period of Ramadan, I am going to devote significant space on this blog to the battle against Mohammedanism, and will offer suggestions as to what we, as common laymen can do.

First, during each day of Ramadan, we should pray a decade of the Rosary, for the intention of liberating the followers of Mohammed from the errors of Koranism and one decade for the increase of the True Faith in Europe and America.

Carthago delenda est.
