Agree! It's just a matter of time. As for a time-table this might prove difficult.
On the whole, I'd say the people of England are probably ready to embrase Islam with open hearts, but it's going to take time.
Lots of folk have already converted.
Wait and see, but don't get left behind.
As for myself, I'm off to [hopefully] Paradise in the next few years. I'm already 66 - maybe ten more. Time then to repent and do something.
For the moment I'm still playing with my lifelong belief of Christian Socialism.
Just one final point in passing. It came to my attention a few years ago that Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem, which is a town in Palestine. JC was a Palestinian.
Just keep that in mind for a while.

All religious viewpoints stifle debate, all religions force views onto people that have no basis in fact, all religious societies are regressive, they will only ever try to turn back the clock to a point where most people are simply slaves to do what the masters want, the concept of hell was created by religionists to frighten the uneducated into following them.
Look at what the Taliban inflicted on the people of Afghanistan, girls were not allowed education, television, radio and music were illegal, the means for people to express themselves, ther views and their emotions were taken away.
Across the world areas where religion is the main motivating force tend to also be the areas where the poorest people live, a few exceptions do exist, but they tend to be areas that the West is dependant on, such as those countries with high oil/gas reserves.
All religions should be opposed by those who regard freedoms of speech and the individual as important so converting any country to a religion lead society is wrong regardless of the religion.
Short answer, it is not inevitable, and it is not going to happen, Islam is fighting for it's very existance, and outdated and failed system of living.

Hi Mark S,
It seems you have the same opinion as Muammar al-Gaddafi....
"We have four million Muslims in Albania. There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe – without swords, without guns, without conquests. The fifty million Muslims of Europe will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades. Europe is in a predicament, and so is America. They should agree to become Islamic in the course of time, or else declare war on the Muslims."
personally for me....I was born a heathen and will die one..( I believe in a higher power..but I am not a follower any particular dogma or religious organization...thus making me a heathen or infidel to those that do )..when my end will occur ..I have no idea...but I will never be a Muslim, follow the teaching of Islam, or live under sharia law....so, there will be no inevitable conversion for me....

NO NO NO................
There are islamic states in other parts of the world that would be perfectly acceptable residences for the muslims living in UK if the locals were as welcoming and gullible as the british have been (and generous )
the liberal and generous actions of the brits has been the cause of this problem arising
perhaps a return to christian values (or moral values of any kind) would stop the rot
perhaps we have been sleepwalking into a sharia state but i think that people are beginning to wake up and smell the coffee......
i certainly won't be converting any time soon and don't know anyone who has converted or is even thinking about it.....

the only thing that is inevitable will be the attack of religion in general.
& the Establishment will decide to detach its self from any religion, rather than bow to a new master.
islam.
i think 71 million or so christians, of various denominations. & collectively 8 million, hindus, buddhists, bahá’í, jains, jews
and zoroastrians
plus the followers of new religious movements sects & cults.
or how about the JWs?
i don't think they'll just say OK, you can rename our god Allah!
the UK has always prided its self for being Multi-faith or the option of having no faith.
how will atheist feel about having religion pushed on to them?
islam by force is not something i wish to contemplate.

No, initially the extremists are not to any extent further inquiring for Islam, they're inquiring for a loose interpretation of Islam from the Koran. second, why supply up each and every of the ideals you've lived upon for therefore long on your existence to renounce? all and distinctive is entitled to their own ideals and this conflict might want to proceed until eventually we wipe out each and every very last extremist terrorist their is.

I can only speak for myself, I won't be converting to Islam or any other organised religion, religions have caused more wars in this world. I will follow my own path and leave everyone else to follow theirs.
Religion is all about control of the masses, therefore it's in my mind completely corrupt.

First: Who says it is inevitable?
Second: How would you enforce a timetable: A quick beheading or two for anybody who didn't convert? Or maybe you've got a 9/11 in mind?

Don't be daft.
In the UK Islam is the 4th most popular religion, behind Christianity, Judaism and Hinduism.
They account for less than 2% while Christianity is over 75%.

Islam is not inevitable. In its true sense there is no way it can be a religion without respecting other religions. In fact, Buddhism is growing fast.
