800,000 Muslims pour into Germany that even the Arabs didn't want!
This is Germany's "Neville Chamberlain" moment.

Amidst heart-wrenching news of migrants trying to seek refuge in European countries, asylum-seeking Muslims in Germany are apparently being baptized and converting to Christianity for one rumored reason: It will increase their chance of staying in the stable European country.
Which is the last thing they need.
Mohammed Ali Zonoobi is one such Muslim. He bends his head as the priest pours water over his hair and says loudly in a prayer-like manner, "Will you break away from Islam?".
Zonoobi gives the answer in the affirmative, elevating his hope to stay in Germany as he would be able to say after converting that he can't go back to his homeland owing to discrimination. His first name is now Martin not Mohammed.
Zonoobi, a carpenter from Iran, arrived in Germany with his family around five months ago. He belongs to the many hundreds of mostly Iranian and Afghan asylum seekers who get converted to Christianity at the evangelical Trinity Church.
This coming from the Pope oblivious to the fact a Muslim would kill him in a heartbeat if given half a chance.
Pastor Gottfried Martens has been converting these Muslim men and women for quite some time now. He agrees that many convert so that they can stay in Germany but he argues that only 10% of the new converts abandon the church by not attending the mass after christening.
"I know there are — again and again — people coming here because they have some kind of hope regarding their asylum," Martens said. "I am inviting them to join us because I know that whoever comes here will not be left unchanged."
Although becoming Christian does not help the ex-Muslims much, there is a slim chance that Germany would deport them to their native countries since they can get punished by death for apostasy.
They're forgetting about this:

This, then, is the dilemma: Islamic law unambiguously splits the world into two perpetually warring halves—the Islamic world versus the non-Islamic—and holds it to be God's will for the former to subsume the latter. Yet if war with the infidel is a perpetual affair, if war is deceit, and if deeds are justified by intentions—any number of Muslims will naturally conclude that they have a divinely sanctioned right to deceive, so long as they believe their deception serves to aid Islam "until all chaos ceases, and all religion belongs to God." Such deception will further be seen as a means to an altruistic end. Muslim overtures for peace, dialogue, or even temporary truces must be seen in this light, evoking the practical observations of philosopher James Lorimer, uttered over a century ago: "So long as Islam endures, the reconciliation of its adherents, even with Jews and Christians, and still more with the rest of mankind, must continue to be an insoluble problem."
In closing, whereas it may be more appropriate to talk of "war and peace" as natural corollaries in a Western context, when discussing Islam, it is more accurate to talk of "war and deceit." For, from an Islamic point of view, times of peace—that is, whenever Islam is significantly weaker than its infidel rivals—are times of feigned peace and pretense, in a word, taqiyya.
The bottom line. Muslims are permitted to lie even disavow Islam and Mohammed if it is not a genuine heart-felt rejection. Just about anything goes as long it benefits Islam.
If you could read his mind...There's a sucker born every minute.
Germany has been experiencing an unprecedented increase in asylum seekers this year, with migrants' number reaching up to 800,000 now, an around fourfold increase on last year.
Most of the asylum-seekers come from Muslim countries like Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. Lately, almost 40% to 50% from Syria and Afghanistan have been allowed to stay in Germany, albeit temporarily.
Germany's Federal Office for Migration and Refugees asserted that it did not influence on the reasons applicants make while applying for asylum, or they do not get accepted on the basis of their religion and persecution they might face if they return.
But, for Zonoobi and his wife Afsaneh the christening has actually marked a new beginning.
"Now we are free and can be ourselves," she said. "Most important, I am so happy that our children will have a good future here and can get a good education in Germany."
18 months from now...
