   Don’t be so sure about pronouncing the death of Christianity. Pope Benedict XVI would most certainly disagree with you, as would 100 million new Chinese Christians. Writing in the Asia Times Spengler says:

   For the first time, perhaps, since the time of Mohammed, large parts of the Islamic world are vulnerable to Christian efforts to convert them, for tens of millions of Muslims now dwell as minorities in predominantly Christian countries. The Muslim migration to Europe is a double-edged sword. Eventually this migration may lead to a Muslim Europe, but it also puts large numbers of Muslims within reach of Christian missionaries for the first time in history.

   Muslims are in dialogue with a pope who evidently does not merely want to exchange pleasantries about coexistence, but to convert them. This no doubt will offend Muslim sensibilities, but Muslim leaders are well-advised to remain on good terms with Benedict XVI. Worse things await them. There are 100 million new Chinese Christians, and some of them speak of marching to Jerusalem - from the East.

   What’s funny is, the “start a cult” video you linked to could apply to something like Scientology, or all types of religion.

   It’s really all the same.
