CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

If by prevail you mean sending its already drug and booze addled men to die in their thousands to satisfy one man’s ambition then yes; it has been very well proven.

Yes, and EU/ UK is going to face the same thing as the neanderthals.

Russia may exit this war with gained territory, but they have lost so much in the process. Their population is diminished. There most productive industry is being systematically destroyed.

Are you familiar with the history of the Catholic Church?
Maybe Islam just needs to go through an enlightenment period to chill out a bit?

Most people seem to need meaning even if it is mundane like a nice lawn or favorite team winning.

It is true that one could enjoy something meaningless. But can we care about something meaningless to us?

Is Europe facing civilizational erasure? No. If what is meant by the question is slightly more defined, perhaps it is possible to answer it in an more informative way.
Regarding point 1, am I supposed to be upset that other åparts of the world are increasing their GDP at a higher rate than Europe or my country (Sweden)? Trade is not a zero sum game.
Regarding point 2 (which presents many quite disparate questions), overall it is not an issue in Sweden. The only point that holds true is the low birthrate, but we live in uncertain times so it is understandable that potential parents are wary.
Regarding point 3, no we don't lack self-confidence.
