Europe: The Islamization of Christmas “An Unbearable, Unvoluntary Uubmission to Islam”
This year’s Christmas season has been marked by Islam-related controversies in nearly every European country.

More troubling are the growing efforts to Islamize Christmas. The re-theologizing of Christmas has based on the false premise that the Jesus of the Bible is the Jesus (Isa) of the Koran. This religious fusion sometimes referred to as “Chrislam,” is gaining ground in a West that has become biblically illiterate.
