Jesus & Santa Get The European Boot
No time to think of my own content so here is an interesting editorial I read.
With the topic of the secularization of Christmas being the buzz lately, I found this editorial with a pretty interesting European perspective. Basically it goes into how close Christianity is to becoming the minority of Europe. Here’s a quote that may make you want to read on:
In France, even if no more Muslims were to arrive, the Islamic population would double in one generation, and quadruple in two. Bearing in mind that immigrants tend to have children at a younger age than their European counterparts, those generations will reach maturity in a relatively short time. If current birth rates persist half of the school age children in France will be Muslim by 2050.
