Islam has tried a lot of ways to conquer the West over the last 1400 years.
00:00:04.800
By the sword, by the ship, by the bomb, by the knife.
00:00:10.840
Now just through the migration policies of the European Union and the United States.
00:00:14.940
Well, they're trying a new strategy, and I think it might be the most effective one of all.
00:00:23.560
Dancing in the moonlight, everybody's beating, walking, riding, it's a show.
00:00:31.780
Here is the Sharia thirst trap going viral on TikTok, trying to win converts to the religion of Muhammad.
00:00:41.340
Did you know there are over 2,500 mosques in the United States right now?
00:00:49.480
Why don't you pick a common name like a normal person?
00:00:51.620
Muhammad is the most commonly used name on earth.
00:00:53.200
Islam is the fastest growing religion, and has grown over 50% in the last 10 years.
00:01:04.180
So is the mayor of Michigan, New Jersey, Texas, and Minnesota.
00:01:11.740
That is literally the office that defends people's rights to practice their faith around the world.
00:01:17.660
And on top of all that, there is more than 150 Muslim elected officials across 33 states.
00:01:37.380
She says, yes, the Muslims are coming here in huge numbers.
00:01:42.340
They're having a ton of kids, in part funded by defrauding the welfare system.
00:01:47.340
And the Native American population, the Christian population, has many, many fewer children than the Muslims do.
00:01:54.560
So yeah, Islam is taking over America through mass migration and the strength of their political communities.
00:02:05.040
Because then the promise is that America can be like Somalia, or Iran, or Iraq, or something like that.
00:02:16.540
To me, that TikTok would have the opposite effect of the one she wants.
00:02:22.980
What's the biggest money makers right now in the West?
00:02:25.100
You've got alcohol, gambling, weapons manufacturing, the sex industry, the financial system with the interest rates, cosmetics, fashion, music, Hollywood.
00:02:41.620
So if Islam was in power, the current banking system would completely collapse.
00:02:48.880
At the end of the day, Islam has no commercial value.
00:02:51.660
They hate Islam because it threatens their profits and their power.
00:02:56.200
So she's right that a lot of those industries are bad.
00:03:02.600
I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here.
00:03:08.240
Again, you know, Islam takes this extreme stance which says that, you know, you can't consume alcohol at all.
00:03:14.960
Whereas, coincidentally, in Christianity, it's, in a way, one could say that you can't practice Christianity without alcohol because of the Holy Communion, because of the sacred wine, which becomes the body and blood of Christ.
00:03:27.460
However, even beyond all of those points, yeah, yeah, I would be fine, you know, getting rid of the pornography industry.
00:03:34.320
Those aren't the biggest money makers in the country, though.
00:03:36.460
The closest she gets to is the financial industry and interest rates, which, you know, Islam has that, too.
00:03:41.520
They just kind of circumscribe it in a little way.
00:03:43.200
But, I don't know, aren't bigger money makers, like the energy industry, for instance?
00:03:48.500
I guess, and the Muslim countries have a lot of oil, too.
00:03:53.500
Now, I'm not going to really, I'm not going to knock Islam for, you know, its circumscribing certain vices.
00:04:01.420
It just does seem to, as with all things, it seems to go too far.
00:04:04.800
You know, like, thinkers from G.K. Chesterton, all the way to Aristotle, point out that you can sometimes err in two ways.
00:04:13.440
You know, you can fall on two sides of error, and so you want to have a via media in the middle.
00:04:17.920
It's good, for instance, to encourage modesty among women.
00:04:21.580
It's bad to murder your daughter for not wearing a headscarf.
00:04:25.120
It's good to discourage drunkenness, but it is bad from, you know, totally condemning the fruit of the vine, which is, you know, an integral part of Western culture.
00:04:36.560
And, in fact, actually the centerpiece of our Lord's first miracle at the wedding of Cana.
00:04:47.700
Did you know Islam was the first leadership to allow women the right to inherit and own property?
00:04:53.320
Meanwhile, in England and USA, they saw women as property until the 20th century.
00:04:59.120
Women have had plenty of rights in England and throughout the West for a long time, long before feminism.
00:05:06.200
Now, I'm no expert on the rights that women are afforded within Islam, other than knowing that honor killings are prescribed by the Quran.
00:05:17.300
So, I'm not even one who really goes after, oh, the hijab is, you know, so terribly oppressive.
00:05:23.760
But one thing I object to is when a woman doesn't wear the hijab and then her family murders her.
00:05:28.260
I actually just sat down with a lovely woman who left Islam.
00:05:34.300
And she explained that she was essentially a slave, very nearly forced into a marriage with her cousin,
00:05:40.680
and on the run because her family tried to murder her for deviating from Islam.
00:05:45.820
In my case, he said, we give you two weeks to come back.
00:05:49.820
And otherwise, please don't let us do what we have to do otherwise.
00:05:56.320
I think the Sharia thirst trap might have a few facts a little off.
00:06:07.560
One thing that gives me hope as the culture is failing is that there are faith-filled families
00:06:13.160
who are still churning out kids, raising kids, who can turn things around.
00:06:19.160
That cannot happen if faithful Catholics are not getting married and having those babies.
00:06:22.640
Now, young people, even, you know, the hardcore ones, the suit-and-tie TLMers,
00:06:28.980
who are showing up, they say it's hard to date.
00:06:31.660
I always say dating at the traditional Latin mass, the odds are good, but the goods are odd.
00:06:36.220
Well, I have a solution out there for you, and it's Catholic Match.
00:06:40.120
They're focused on sacramental marriage, not hookups, not endless swiping, actual marriage.

00:06:51.840

00:06:57.040
If I were single right now and I were dating, liturgical preference, it does, it includes that.
00:07:01.940
Plus, they offer live events for premium members, so you can build those connections.
00:07:10.120

00:07:33.040
Hey, Muslims and Christians, I have a question.
00:07:38.020
Christians believe the Bible is the word of God.
00:07:43.940
Oh, and their names were Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, right?
00:07:49.360
Wait, so the authors of the gospel are anonymous?
00:07:54.240
There's actually no solid evidence that the Bible was even written by eyewitnesses or disciples.
00:08:00.620
Well, the gospels were written decades after Jesus.
00:08:06.140
So what language was the gospels first written in?
00:08:16.560
So Jesus taught all these sermons in Aramaic, right?
00:08:19.240
Yes, because Jesus primarily preached to villages and rural areas, where Aramaic was the language spoken by the people of that region.
00:08:28.820
So the Bible we have today is written by unknown authors in a language that Jesus didn't speak in his sermons, and it was written years after his death?
00:08:40.640
So how can the Bible we have today be the word of God?
00:08:45.380
In the Quran, chapter 546, we believe that the original gospel of Jesus is, in fact, the word of God.
00:08:59.240
Which is, yeah, the Bible's written in Greek, and, you know, Christ and the apostles spoke Aramaic.
00:09:05.080
One point, though, she makes, it's kind of silly.
00:09:07.280
She says, did you know the gospels were written after Christ's death?
00:09:11.640
Well, yeah, they wouldn't have been written before Christ.
00:09:16.300
You don't write a narrative before the events take place.
00:09:20.560
Furthermore, she seems to understand what is meant by the word of God.
00:09:24.580
The Bible is written as an efficient cause by multiple authors, obviously.
00:09:35.080
So, no, it's not, the Bible in no way purports to be written by a single author.
00:09:39.460
To say it is the word of God means that it is inspired scripture.
00:09:43.280
But the efficient cause, the guy with the pen writing it down, are individuals throughout history crafting one narrative.
00:09:50.000
So, that, I don't know, she just seems to be a little confused about what is even meant by the Bible.
00:09:56.980
She kind of embraces the historical critical ideas that we don't really know anything about who wrote the Bible or whatever.
00:10:04.120
And furthermore, the notion that within the Roman Empire and the Greek world that people don't know how to translate is kind of silly.
00:10:11.460
There are lots of cultures butting up against each other, all within one empire.
00:10:18.240
Even beyond all of that, you notice that claim there at the end.
00:10:21.380
She says, well, we believe in the gospel of Jesus.
00:10:27.260
And it took an Arab 700 years later to figure out what it really meant.
00:10:32.000
This is like every cult leader throughout history.
00:10:37.320
We just don't believe what Christians have believed continuously since the age of the apostles and since the incarnation.
00:10:43.700
We just don't believe that because we know better.
00:10:46.200
We, a bunch of Arabs 700 years later, we know what was really going on in Jerusalem and in Bethlehem and Nazareth in the first century.
00:11:02.760
So, if you're going to question the accuracy of the gospels because they were written a few decades after the events that they're describing,
00:11:13.040
wouldn't you have to question the Quran's account of the true gospel of Jesus that was written 600 years later or thereabouts in a totally different place?
00:11:24.120
In a totally different, also in a totally different language?
00:11:27.940
This is why I find the Islam simping among Christians to be so odious.
00:11:34.460
Because sometimes they'll say, actually, you know, Muslims really admire Christ and they really admire Mary.
00:11:43.420
The Quran says explicitly that they crucified him not.
00:11:48.580
The Quran denies explicitly the central event in the history of the world when Christ conquers death on the cross.
00:11:55.200
How could you say the Quran is respectful toward Christ?
00:12:00.000
They deny his divinity and his conquest of death.
00:12:05.060
They have the audacity to, and really ignorance, to appropriate him and to make him into some false god of their own making.
00:12:13.940
I mean, St. Paul writes in the letter to the Philippians, I think it's 318.
00:12:18.040
There are many walking now, and I tell you, even weeping, who are enemies of the cross of Christ.
00:12:24.460
Muslims want to bring Shia law to the United States.
00:12:38.720
Marriage must be between two consenting adults.
00:12:48.400
The current court system is derived from Sharia.
00:13:01.520
Okay, so some of that is entailed by Sharia law.
00:13:12.380
And murdering people for converting from Islam to other religions, including the true religion.
00:13:22.060
It's not that she's saying things that are totally untrue.
00:13:25.420
It's that she's giving a partial view of the truth, which is in itself a lie.
00:13:29.140
Though, she does say something that's untrue there.
00:13:30.740
She says, Islam believes in Sharia law prescribes no interest loans, which means there's no poverty.
00:13:36.240
And I say, okay, I guess it could prescribe no interest loans or it could take a strong stance against usury, which is fine by me.
00:13:43.060
But I'm pretty sure Muslim countries are pretty poor.
00:13:48.600
Like, is Yemen just a flourishing, material, abundant society?
00:13:54.280
Is that Somalia, because as far as I can tell, half the Somalian economy is just money that Somalis in America send back there.
00:14:05.800
Is that a little partial view of the truth that tells you a whole big lie?
00:14:14.940
That's not the most Muslim sounding name I've ever heard.
