I, too, would much rather see an atheist world than a Muslim world, but then I'd prefer it to any other kind of world as well. A slow trickle of Islamic immigration is not suddenly going to turn Britain and France into Iran and Saudi Arabia. Immigration would be curbed long before we reached that level, and why would so many islamists leave their precious sharia states to move to liberal democracies? It makes no sense at all. For the most part, the Muslims who move to Europe are the ones who hate the way of life in their home countries. That would be why they left. |
Have to say I disagree with you there. Most immigrants from the second or third world are economic migrants. They come here to work and earn a living so they can send money back to their native country to support their extended familiy and/or make a better life for themselves here due to the lack of decent job opportunities their country of origin presents. But their norms and customs are still that of where they came from. I know plenty of taxi drivers and people who work in Indian restaurants etc who due to their line of work are only exposed to drunken and rowdy natives so stereotype English culture as such. They are convinced their culture is superior or if not superior than at least they should stick to their own rather than adopt the British way of life.
But like you say not everyone is like that but unfortunately a lot of people from the East tend to believe in a religion and especially for Muslims being an atheist is seen as the ultimate sin and one cannot be openly so. However I am hoping as the generations go by moderate Islam or Muslim by name only will be the main form of Islam in the UK in the years to come.
