Abstract
"Folkestone Baptist Church, prompts thought on Christian response to immigration issues. On the 20th November 2004 the Daily Telegraph printed an editorial about the views of Cardinal Ratzinger. lt relayed, and seemed to endorse, the thought that "A falling birthrate is altering the ethnic composition of Europe, as Muslim immigration transforms the ancient heartlands of Christendom. Churches are emptying as Christian culture is threatened by an aggressive secularism, even an intolerant one." The article cites two cases. Rocco Buttiglione, forced to stand down because his orthodox Catholic views were seen as incompatible with an EU portfolio including justice for homosexuals and a Swedish protestant pastor imprisoned for a month for preaching against homosexuality"
