without reading the whole thread:
This is not about becoming Christians. It is about Christian / western values.You have to see women as equals and accept they have the same rights like you do. That is something muslims have their problems with.
Of course this also counts for gay people or any other minority.
So what Merkel actually says is against discrmination and for an equal society. Now think again if this might be the standard the Nazis tried to achieve.
Reading comprehension FTW!

Yeah, and our country (USA) did a fine job of viewing blacks and women of equal value throughout its christian/western value dominated history. Please.
To act as though the "values" of the western world or christian world should be put on a pedestal i direct you to the catholic church and islamaphobia USA.

With your sarcasm you made the perfect point, even though you did not want to.
Christian / Western values have changed and evolved over the years. Islamist values did not. Women / black people / gay people are all equal and live peacefully in one society. We don't have to discuss about the fact that this wasn't the case a couple of hundred years ago.
The Islamist values did not evolve like the Western / Christians. That is the whole point. Merkel wants them to accept these western / christian standards without losing their religion.
Right now we have areas, where only a handful of people speak German, women wear the burca and minorities are not welcome. Remember: Germans are a minority in these areas as well. So as a German you are not welcome in some parts of Germany. Scary thought, right?

What did Christianity have to do with that? Christian values didn't evolve. Their attitudes towards women, gays, sex etc. haven't changed at all. It was the rejection of those values that helped the world move foreward.
