The Exploitation of Faith - Part II with Guest Dr. Julian Dunraven
Since 9/11, Islam’s demographic and institutional presence in Europe and the United States has expanded while Europe has become markedly less Christian. At the same time, jihadist terrorism remains a documented security threat; European governments are investigating political-Islamist networks; Christian communities face severe persecution globally and anti-Christian hate in Europe; and migration is increasingly discussed as a possible tool of geopolitical pressure. In this special, part 2 Irrevocable investigation, Fr. André Mahanna welcomes Prof. Julian Dunraven to ask directly: Is the West being Islamized? Who pays? Who influences? Who is protected? They examine Ceuta, mosque growth, political Islam, jihadism, welfare and the “modern jizya?” analogy, universities and Christian institutions, Sharia debates, religious freedom, U.S. visas and Temporary Protected Status, and the growing persecution of Christians — while distinguishing verified facts from allegations and defending the dignity and religious freedom of every human person. The deeper spiritual question is unavoidable: is the West being transformed only because Islamic institutions are growing — or also because Christianity is retreating from its own faith, vocations, family life, worship, and public witness?
