Chr!st!an News Network

Yesterday as I was surfing through the different channels on tv, I came across a news program. The newscaster had just begun to talk about the birthrate of muslims in Germany. "Interesting," I thought so I stayed on that channel to listen to what the newscaster had to report. I didn't realize at first that it was one of those chr!st!an channels. I only started being suspicious when the news item of the increasing birthrate of muslims included a view about how the population of muslims will be of multiple times the number of chritians in Germany by mid-century. "Urk? Apa objektif berita nih?" I thought to myself. The news than turned to some kind of preacher or host of some talk show and he went on to say that if the ever rising birthrate of muslims are allowed to happen, the western world could be in danger as Germany as a country is capable of nuclear power and invading other countries. He asked all his viewers to imagine what the country would be like if muslims took over a country that had been for many many years, unofficially chr!st!an. He said that they could not let that happen and that things need to be done to stop such an 'invasion' from happening. Oh my gawd!!! Why so extreme? I couldn't close my gaping mouth. I knew that there were some really intense and almost very closed-minded religious people here. And I am sure they watch the type of news that I came across all the time. The media can really distort a person's view of something. And to think that they think that our religion is extreme?! It's so sad. Really it is. I was just so shocked that I had to get it out of my system and onto my blog.
