Germany's anti-Islam Pegida makes surprise gains in first election bid

The point is, the civil liberties you enjoy cease to exist when those opposed to those liberties grow larger in number

You are seriously clued-out. It advocates a whole bunch of backward shite. You can see this in any country where it is the dominant faith.

Why is it that people like you don't understand that not every Muslim wants to introduce Sharia Law and a caliphate? Like have you never met a Muslim or something? Or did you fall for FOX News bullshit of only ever showing Muslims as bearted men screaming while burning flags or women with hijjabs? Do you seriously think that all 1.6 billion Muslims in the world want to stone every adulterer and throw gay people of cliffs? So tell me, why aren't you concerned about all Christians wanting to have sex with children and btw. also stone adulterers? All religions, especially old ones are horrible. It isn't a question of what faith but of the acceptance of secular ideals. Muslims are just as diverse in thought as Christians, Jews, atheists, Buddhists or any other faith.

What you have in these countries are horrible economic conditions that lead to the same kind of problems you see in poor majority Christian countries. Poverty and a lack of education breeds religious fundamentalism, we are neither poor nor uneducated, and so Muslims of Europe in current and future. Think of Uganda and the Lord's Resistance Army, think of South America were gay people continuesly get kidnapped and put into facilities were they are supposed to be reprogrammed into being straight. That's Christians pulling the same nuttery. Or Buddhist in Myanmar slaughtering Muslims. But no, that shit doesn't get reported on in the mass media, but when a Muslim terrorist organisation blows up a girls school it's all over the fucking place.

Islam can't advocate for something because it is a religion, not an ideology. Islamism is an ideology and can actually advocate for something.
