There has been a lot of chatter about Muslims lately. And lot of chatter about whether or not Muslims should be allowed in this country (thanks to Donald Trump). Well, according to this really interesting link, the population of Muslims in the United States will double by the year 2050.
So, what does our country look like with Muslims doubling in population by 2050?
It’s just something to think about, especially if you’re a woman like me, frankly – a strong, independent, self-reliant, conservative woman. If you’re a gay person out there reading this statistic, you may be concerned a little, but probably not, because you’ve more than likely been brainwashed into believing that you have to be a Democrat – and so you’re aligned with the school of thought that sharia is completely awesome, because you’re ‘politically correct and tolerant’ that way.
When I also read that the “vast majority of mosques in the United States are part of the Jihad network,” that’s a little unnerving, too. But what do I know? I’m just a strong-willed, self-reliant, pigheaded, bacon-eating conservative woman.
The thing about America being half Muslim is that the dynamic will surely change in our country if that indeed occurs. The American climate will surely be different – especially for women and the LGBT community. And however you perceive that change – I’m not going to tell you how to perceive it, but the climate will surely change nonetheless – it’s just something to think about.
I’m just saying that perhaps you should do that. You know, think about it for a second.
According to the Pew Research Center, Islam will in fact become the second-largest religious group in the United States, due to their “spectacular birthrates, the relative youth of Muslims and the increase in Muslim immigration into the United States.”
Muslims currently make up approximately 0.9% of the U.S. adult population, or 1.8 million Muslim adults. If children are included, the Muslim population in the United States totals 2.75 million Muslims in the country, the majority of whom (63%) are immigrants.
As the fastest-growing religion in America, by the year 2050, the number of Muslims is projected to more than double, surpassing Judaism as the country’s second-largest religious group after Christianity. Those identifying with Islam are projected to comprise 2.1% of the U.S. population.
Among all immigrants to the United States, the Muslim share also doubled in just ten years, from roughly 5% in 1992 to 10% of all immigrants in 2012. In that year, 100,000 Muslim immigrants entered the country.
Almost half of Muslims living in America, 48%, say that all or most of their close friends are also Muslims, and 69% say religion is very important in their lives.
Weirdly enough, American Muslims identify overwhelmingly with the Democratic Party; “70% are sympathetic to the Democrats versus just 11% who say they lean more toward the Republican Party.”
This is bizarre to me, seeing as how liberal Democrats are and how strict sharia is. But it’s not surprising when it comes to the fact that U.S. Muslims love big government. They absolutely love the notion of a sugar-daddy government. Self-reliance and personal responsibility just isn’t their strong suit, so naturally, they’re Democrats because they want to suck at the government teat from cradle to grave. And that affects the future of the Republican party, too – as well as the future of our country.
It’s enough to break us, frankly.
Simply, it’s more of the “takers outweighing the makers” mentality that is crippling this country already, and it’s something Mock and I have been railing against since day one on this blog almost seven years ago. It’s something we wrote about in our book, Right For A Reason.
It’s compounded entitlement mentality, which is a deadly cancer that absolutely will eventually lead to our demise.
It’s already killing us…just look at our debt. Take a look around at our country.
Now, I’m not saying that I agree with Donald Trump on everything. And this isn’t about persecuting a religion. It is about the scale tipping so much to the other side because of political correctness and forced diversity and the squelching of American exceptionalism by liberals, that we’re so willing to give up everything we are and everything we were founded upon because of political correctness. I can’t put up a nativity scene anymore at a government building now – and that’s because of disgruntled ATHEISTS. Kids can’t say the pledge of allegiance in some public schools – and that’s because of LIBERALS. I wonder what it’s going to look like when the second-largest religious sect in the United States adheres to sharia law? I wonder what’s going to happen to our American traditions then? I wonder what the attitude will be toward self-reliant, strong, independent, powerful American women?
And you American gay folks who have worked so hard for equality?
It’s just interesting to think about what our lady America will look like in 2050….that’s all.
Something to ponder.
Happy Friday.
