"Where in the New Testament does Jesus condone war of a civil or ethnic cleansing nature, which many of you envisage and support being launched against Europe's Muslims?"
Ethnic cleansing is not permitted in the New Testament.
As I wrote before: I believe that the most important phrase in the Bible is: love your neighbour as much as you love yourself. So, in order to be able to love your neighbour you have to love yourself in a correct way. Procrastination is not loving or respecting yourself. Demanding respect for who you really are, is. Asking or forcing people to leave who do not respect who you are is respecting yourself. Loving the people (whatever race or religion) who respect you, that's true love and a lot of fun because it comes from both sides.
Extremist Islam is against this. If you read the Sharia you will understand that it protects the weak males. How can you love/respect yourself if you mutilate young female bodies and force women to hide themselves? How can you love/respect yourself when you prohibit females of being full human beings (including sexuality)? I have no problems with a mosque standing next to a church. I have a problem with people who do not respect me and who believe in the supremacy of the weak male. Yes, those Muslims should leave. They have no place here, and we have no place where they feel at home (which is not here).
I was very surprised to read the following two page article which details that there is a light of optimism in the Netherlands. I think you will be surprised at some of its contents and perspective.

In the New Testament, Jesus does not ask the West to commit suicide either. There is nothing inhumane in sending people back home. In fact, civil war will start if we don't send them back home.

No where, Andre....and I can only speak for myself when I say I never condoned or said anything about an "ethnic clensing".....Remember, it's the political left in EU that has allowed this infiltration of illegal muslim immigrants to pour through the continent, and it is they who are cowtowing to every one of their whims in the interest of politcally correctness and multiculturalism....It's gotten to the point where they immigrate to EU and don't see the need to abide by the laws of the land or become integreated citizens, and where they choose not to speak out against the jihadist among their ranks.....When that happens, my recommendation has always been deportation especially if there are ties to terrorist organizations, not "ethnic clensing"......It's a matter of the West's survival....Whatever it takes....Within reason, that is......
[43] Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
[44] But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you.

Yes...Love your enemies...Just be wise and don't be a dhimmi about it!.....In the words of the greatest President the USA had in the 2Oth Century (that being Ronaldus Magnus for you Clinton worshipers out there), "Trust, but verify".......
To everyone on the Brussels Journal page in the USA, in Europe, and all over the globe, have Merry Chirstmas Season (which I might add, does NOT end until after the Feast Day of the 3 Kings/Epiphany) and all the best for a safe, healthy, prosperous and blessed 2007.....Lets all pray that Europe wakes up from it's slumber......
