So much for the wonderful time of the Cordoba era. without christians and Jews who ran the show and payed for it with their penalty taxes, it would have been a very poor performance on stage.
We could have had a renaissance and an enlightenment even withourt being object to Muslim conquest and repression. Why so many Europeans say thanks! today for the Muslim invasion back then I do not understand. Lacking knowledge, I assume.

Alright, now I understand your view on the church…and share it to an extent but I think though rather than use Islam to weaken the Catholic church better to make clear a separation of public political life from private belief and treat all religions equally in that regard.
I see you completely misunderstood my point about the 1/3 proportions. I was referring to the Christian monarchs policy after the reconquista towards the Jews. I feel this is what may happen to the Muslims in Europe already here…including the killing and expulsion and I find the prospect horrifying. That would mean the end of democracy as surely as a postulated "Eurabia" under sharia law. It really seems that's what some want, not only stopping immigration.
