It would appear that we are in a crisis period that could get out of hand and inclide a wider conflagration. However I believe that what ever else happens that in less than 20 years there will be no Islamic terrorists and most Islamic nations will open to political and religious freedom.
I look for an expansion of the Christian religion with evangelists from eastern nations doing most of the activity, particulary Chinese Christians and othereas like the Filipinos who already send out many missionaries.
That does not mean that changes will come without pain and struggle. But what ever horrors are endured along the way the outcome is sure. That is: the end of militant Islam and a political order more like that in Turkey with democracy and the Mullahs with much less political power and freedom for Christians to preach thew gospel in now closed nations.
One of the main forces at work is the move to allow more freedom for women in Islamic nations. Nothing can stop that trend. Any move to freedom for any facit of Islamic society will also move other needs for freedom and human rights to be respected.
If all the wicked doctrines of the world have freedom to be expressed openly and Christianity is also afforded the same freedom, then WE WIN.
The war we are in will not be won with guns, It is as much of and more an idiological battle like the one we had for over 70 yeears with the USSR. The battle with them was finally won on the ideological field and not in Korea or Viet Nam. It is a battle for the minds and hearts of men and with Islam we are losing at present. That is mainly because the whole Western World has thrown away the only doctrines, (the ethics of Jesus) that can defeat the Islamic onslaught that is engulfing Western Europe and threatens to engulf us if the rate of Islam continues to grow in this country at the speed it is gaining ground. This war is ideological but bloodshed is inevitable before it is over.
