Lest anyone doubt my declaration of the culture wars over, remember that the younger generations and immigrants of all types from all places, support them, and those numbers will grow over time.
Oh... so the christian morality of them merrickans has been eradicated at last.

Quite a win eh?

When compared to the muslim mortality, you may have a point.
Edit: there's an unintentional misspell in there....a "pudfarkian" slip....was gonna
change it? Then decided not.
Most muslims have more similar values to christians than to, ahem, your average TV satanist. Most of them just work, marry, have kids & so on. The ones you see calling for jihad & all that are only agent provocateurs sent by the CIA, zionists & so on.
Heck salafism spread like hell in the Caucasus when the CIA decided to stir shit in the southern soviet republics. The first salafist qurans were printed by your own boys. Remember the post I gave a while back reminding yourse guys that Irak's prime minister what a chrisitan, and that several Syrian ministers were actually christians too. Yet WE encourage the worst kind of islam (provided you can still call it that).
Just read a book by John Fante, and you're closer to the regular muslim than you are to your average showbusiness satanist. Way closer.
Here's a passage from the quran translated by me:
Al-Maidah 5.82. Tu constateras sûrement que ceux qui nourrissent la haine la plus violente contre les musulmans sont les juifs et les païens, et que ceux qui sont les plus disposés à sympathiser avec les musulmans sont les hommes qui disent : «Nous sommes des chrétiens.» Cela tient à ce que ces derniers ont parmi eux des prêtres et des moines et à ce qu'ils ne font pas montre d'orgueil.
You will surely find that those who hate the muslims with the most violence are jews and pagans, and those that are the most likely to sympathise with the musilms are the men who say :"we are christians". This is because those men have amongst them priests and monks and that they don't show any pride*.
*There are two french words for pride: fierté, which is the positive side of pride, and orgueil which is pride in what it has of negative.
