#1 Females know who are the alpha males, and it isn't European males.

#2 "For me," she adds, "Islam is a message of love, of tolerance and peace."

Unfortunately, there are large numbers of Islam's followers that didn't quite get that message....

#4 "The phenomenon is booming, and it worries us," [said] the head of the French domestic intelligence agency...

I hope that was a problem in translation.

#5 she's still in the honeymoon stage or her relationship with Islam. Soon they will try to radicalize her. It's not that she's Eeuropean, the point is she's French. She live in a screwed up country. No real surprise she has converted, would you be surprised if all of Berkley turned to Islam? She just sounded lost and the Catholic church was not giving her what she needed. Now she's ripe for the extremists to chip away at.

#8 "and women are not sex objects."

Technically, that's correct. Muslim women are breeders, and non-Muslim women are war booty. Donkeys, however, are sex objects.

Where's PETA when ya need 'em?!

#9 IMHO - these women are looking for the father figure to tell them what to wear, what to do, and Islam provides that, along with the requisite beatings to prove your love

#10 It's the sort of thing you can expect to happen when you try to force a totally secular society down people's throats. The European governments don't seem to realize that most people need religion and need it to be a major part of their lives. Instead try to force religion out of their lives. In Europe they've made Christianity something to be ashamed of so people will start taking the path of least resistance which is Islam the religion that's been appeased by European governments for years. It's one of things that make the Muslim religion so dangerous.

#11 BillH, Napoleon got your point, but the Frogs and Eurabia have forgotten.

#12 Maybe France is pushing their separation of Church and state a bit too far. The sentiment in France is clearly anti-Church. What else is there to turn to if the Catholic Church is looked down upon and the state is not doing so hot itself? Islam is the new fashion.

article: Christianity did not give me the same reference points.

Bullshit. You just chose to ignore them. In fact, you're the type of person who keeps hopping from religion to religion looking for God knows what (pun intended), without giving anything of yourself. Unfortunately, you picked the wrong religion to hop into because there's no turning back now (unless you don't value your life).

This is what happens when it becomes fashionable to attack the Catholic Church, or Christianity in general. People become lost.

#14 "Islam is simpler, more rigorous, and it's easier because it is explicit."

So true. If you want rules, Isslam will give it to you. They may not be the right rules, or make any sense, but you will have lots of rules.

#15 "I was looking for a framework; man needs rules and behavior to follow. "

Which is pr4ecisely what conservative Catholics have been saying for quite some time. the "loosey lefty" types that co-opted the church during the 1970's have had their effect on the Church. This woman is the outcome.

To paraphase: A Church that stands for nothing will fall to anything.

Now someone go beat the USCCB over the head repeatedly until they learn this (witha few select Bishops/Archbishops excluded).

And that somone should be Pope Benedict (via his various Papal offices on Doctrine and the bishops).

#16 Calm down guys, the number of European women converting to Islam is tiny. If it's more than the number of European-born muslim women leaving Islam I'll eat my own crap, although those women tend to keep quiet about it for obvious reasons. The solution to the problem of the radical groups is infiltration. If they start taking on white women for their operation, make sure that 30% of them are agents working for the government. I'm pretty sure the British are already doing this in a big way for men.

#18 I don't want to sound sexist but I'd be curious to see what the converts look like, and if body issues and burqas are somehow involved.

#19 IIRC, last year or earlier this year, the RG police intelligence estimated the number of ethnic french converts to about 50 000, a decent fraction of them for a very simple reason : they had married a muslim man or wimman, and thus "had" to convert to enable the marriage in the eyes of the family.

Thus, conversions to islam are quite real, and should not be underestimated, but are not that numerous in a 60+ millions country.

Still, pressure from muslim in islamized areas is severe on the remaining french minority, either in peer pressure (french youths converting because islam is the only visible religion left around, they need guidance, and all their muslim pals tell them it's the One True Religion), or either through "indirect" means (for example one recent article by center right "Le Figaro" cited the case of a young "gauloise", ethnic french woman, who thought about converting to escape sexual harassment and the perpetual risk of being raped).

Also, a lot of converts actually convert to salafist islam, not the "traditional" sufi version of North Africa (but "french" islam has in all effect been sold to Soddy arabia and the MB in the early 80's by the socialist gvt when it borrowed money from muslim bankers to avoid bankruptcy), but this is the same problem in the USA too I recon.

Apart from theses points, everything that has been said about the "alpha males", the french war against christianity in general and Catholic church in particular, and the pussification/leftism of the french catholic hierarchy is true... not to be conspiratorial, but french church is ripe with free-masons, IIRC bishops are to be okayed by the interior minister, who is *always* a mason... and main FM lodge in France is not "traditional" deist Free-masonry, but socialist, atheist "Grand Orient", heir of the 3rd Republic "republicanism" which is violently anti-catholic and secular, to the point of being a religion itself.

#20 "Why European women are turning to Islam"

L-o-s-e-r-s, that's why.

I-d-i-o-t-s works, too.
