Given that the name 'Mohammed' is now the second most popular name for baby boys within the UK and is set to become the favourite name for boys within a year is it the case that Islam is set to become the dominant religion within the UK?

Why not? Bu the way, Muhammad is the most popular & used male name in the world.

I don't really know whether it will or not. I don't think all the people that pick the name mohammed do so because of the religion factor. Many people have religious names but they were not given these names because of religion. It is becoming more popular of people from islamicbackgrounds to just pick names they like and they do not consider religion at all.

Queenslander about the people in glasgow and heathrow, trade centres, tube attacks. these people may call themselves muslims but that does not mean they are, i am a muslim and i don't consider these people muslims, so why does evry1 else say they are. These people have done nothing but deface the name of islam and it is working as you have proved.

Mohammed is the most common males name in the world. There is a chance that may happen. 1 in every 5 Canadians are now Muslims due to the fact alot of Westerners are having less children than they did before.

Unlikely!!!

There are far more Mr Singhs out there than muslims but because we encourage some imagination we go for more names than Mohammad it doesnt show. Consider if a small minority group of 3% all give their sons the name Bog Ed due to the religions requirement. Then it would show high in the statistics. But in fact its still very small.

Anyway a good BNP lead Civil war to get back our country would be good. Get back from who? Muslims and free riders who damage and dont improve the nation.

I think before that ever happens there will be a massive backlash. The normal person in the street are feeling more and more fed up with terrorism, which makes it easier for the emergence of a dictator, probably from the ranks of the British movement or some such fascist party which will lead to civil war

Dunno,but I know this, everyone is running from christianity who grew up in it,to buddhism, paganism,I seen some Hindu converts, and many are going to Islam- I dont see anyone running from Islam whether they were born into it or converted-Christianity is maybe the largest religion,but I think records may be highly off at this point-(without being able to keep up with all the ppl leaving it) christianity is dying!

It is a lot easier to convert Liberals to Islam than it is to Christianity.
I think it won't be long before 'God save the Queen' is replaced by 'Allah hu akbar.'
Oh yeah the chairperson of the BBC is a Muslim.Now you know why you are being fed bs.
BTW the name Mohamed is the name of most of the assassins from the Bali bombers to the assassination of Theo Van Gogh.

It seems that the tolerant countries of western Europe are going to become the lands of Muslims' harassment, and not without cause.

I don't think so, but christianity is diminishing so quickly and muslims tend to carry on generation after generation, so while i don't believe that next generation they will be the main religion, i do think they'll be a bigger religion than they are now.
