Europe is a Christian Cloob!
 

Since the European Court of Human Rights upheld the banning of the hijab in state schools (applicable to all 25 member states), Europeans seem to have done everything they possibly could to make Muslims feel unwelcome, and especially to give the Turks the finger.

Swiss voters, for instance, recently passed a referendum banning the construction of minarets on top of the country's mosques by 57.5%.

Yet to top it all off, Germany and France recently pushed through the nomination of Herman van Rompuy, Belgium's PM, as the EU's first president. Herman van Rompuy is, btw, pro-Christian and has pretty much said that Turkey will never get in the EU.

So are Europeans just trying to be worse than America or what?

Turkey is not fit to be in a civilized society, I don't understand why this is hard to see.

Well, Europe no longer has right to claim moral superiority over Turkey regarding women's rights, for one thing.

Now Croatia on the other hand...

It's not like the rest of Europe has a retractable blade built-in to their apple trees.
At least not legally.

Hmm yes, the incivility of agriculture

Perhaps this is the result of the several decades of being an open liberal bastion of tolerance and acceptance has finally bitten them in the ass, when they think they can go the opposite of what led them to WWII, they've only come back right where they started.

I've heard anti-Semitism is back en vogue in Europe. You'd think that quality alone would help Europeans and Muslim immigrants there to bond, but I guess not.

Uh Europe has never been tolerant of anything other than sexual deviancy (sometimes). They can't even tolerate each other.

I think you've heard wrong. The most right winged party in Denmark (if we ignore the tiny Nazi party)(this party, the Danish People's Party is compared to Hitler and Nazism by every left winged worth his salt. But then again, what isn't) think that jews and israelis are top notch. Hell, one of the leading figures even recieved the Rauol Wallenberg Medal (I presume that it is something that the Danish Rauol Wallenberg Institue gives)

I was under the impression that it was mostly muslim immigrants who cultivated antisemitism, because it isn't most europeans.

But I might be mistaken?

Yep. Among Muslims.

What?

What about the European Left?

From Great Britain through Germany there seems to be a rise of anti-semitic (primarily from anti-Israel) attitudes in their wing, the very same Left who does not see much of a problem with Muslims in Europe, it seems.

We have our fair share of anti-semitic leftists in the States too also, but they're pretty much limited to Academia.

See, whenever you talk about something that starts with Capital Letters For No Reason that's a hint that you are dealing with something more akin to sinister myth than anything to do with reality.

What about Argonezar The Ageless? I heard he also hates the jews

no wait nevermind I just realized you're doing the "not sucking Israel's dick? guess you hate the jews" thing

I don't think you understand anti-Israeli sentiments.

Can you hate the Jews and love the bullying Israel does? =o

Of course you can, you can love malice and still hate whoever does it, simple.

This dude might pretend otherwise but christianity in europe is vestigial.

The main reason to bar entry to Turkey is that as a society they have about as much trust in evolution as Americans do.

They're barbarians.

This is essentially the core concept of the modern evangelical movement.

Gotta keep the world moving towards Revelations, Pang.

Edit:

Devon. Get out of my head.

Also, geography.

Would this be the same geography that says Cyprus is part of Europe?

Similarly, if the geography says that Turkey isn't part of Europe, why then is Istanbul one of next year's European Capitals of Culture?

Only the southern part of Cyprus is in "Europe". That says a lot about which geography we refer to.

And that's probably the same that makes a good part of current EU's head make Constantinople Istanbul one of the 2010 capitals.

But apparently Greeks have less supporters than Palestinians. :p
