World’s Changing Demographics

Here is a very interesting video that has received over 10.6 million views since March 30, 2009.

Most of us hear about jihad and its implications, ramifications, and impact. However, not many of us hear about what Muslims call fatah. According to David Jeremiah in What in the World Is Going on?, Dr. Jeremiah writes,

Fatah is infiltration, moving into a country in numbers large enough to affect the culture. It means taking advantage of tolerant laws and accommodative policiesto insert the influence of Islam. In places where a military invsion will not succeed, the sla, systematic, and unrelenting methods of fatah are conquering whole nations [ie, France and England].

We all may have heard it said that Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world; however, this has been proven as a falsehood in 2001 and in 2005. However, while I am not sure about 2009, the reality is that Christianity is the fastest growing religion in the world in regards to proselytizing while Islam is the fastest growing religion in relation to self-growth (# of babies). Therefore, Christians need to have more babies! However, that is not the answer for Christians! This is because being born into a Christian family doesn’t make a person a Christian, but being born in a Muslim family makes a person a Muslim by definition. Christians emphasize the need and the importance of making Jesus their personal Lord and Savior. However, Muslims simply need to do the 5 pillars:

1. Shahada: This is simply the reciting of the shahadah in Arabic: “There is no God but Allah, and Mohammad is the Prophet of Allah.”
2. Salat: This is the requirement that each Muslim is to pray 5 times a day (dawn, noon, mid-afternoon, sunset, night) towards Mecca.
3. Zakat: This is alms-giving, approximately 2.5%, for the poor, debtors, or travelors.
4. Sawm of Ramadan: This is fasting (ritual, repentance, or ascetic) from food, drink, and sex during the month of Ramadan from dawn to dusk.
5. Hajj: This is the once in a lifetime trip to Mecca required by all abled-bodied and economically secure followers that takes place during the month of Dhu-Hijah.

#s 1-2, and 4 would be very easily taught to the next generation for it is easier to do ritual/religion than to maintain a relationship. What do you think?
