| Speaking of Christianity, between the Fall of the Roman Empire and the beginning of the Renaissance, for roughly 1000 years (300-1300), the economic growth for these 1000 years was less than 5%. Basically, absolutely nothing happened because Christianity prevented any progress.
The same is happening now in the Middle East.
However, what I don`t get is the following. Since Muslims came to the West, they obviously had a good reason to do so, obviously there was something they didnt like there. Well, since they are here, why are they trying to implement the same society over here ? They want to take advantage of the economic opportunities, but they also want to ban our freedom of speech and expression, not realizing that this freedom is precisely the very reason that we have these economic advantages that they do not have. I wonder, if they implement Sharia here, where will they escape to ? China maybe ? | |

THEY are not trying to implement such things. A small 5% minority may do so, and European media chaps are fascinated
THEY do NOT want to ban the freedom of speech. Freedom of speech and media is the reason why places like Lebanon are so popular in the Middle East. Countries like Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordan and Dubai have a decent freedom of the media in place
