Dalai Lama says 'Germany cannot become an Arab country.'

[wholol]

As I read post after post, all I see is biased opinions of every spectrum.

Why can't we all just agree that humans are humans regardless of whatever place they were conceived on this planet?

It matters not what culture or what skin colour variation you have, there are simply dumb and smart people, weak and strong.

Greed breeds cruelty and inequality that is the true source of hatred that we as a race have been trying to pinpoint, all horrors and cruelties bred from opportunities gained originated from human greed , everything that has occurred in any time frame in history ,battles, wars, terrorism etc, is directly related to that greed ( yes I am talking about politics ).

While people are too busy dealing with their everyday issues, they are indirectly influenced by their environment and thus leading them to false conclusions, sadly awareness levels in the world are too bleak to even mention meanwhile politicians sit and play their puppet games.

You asked what basis I had for my claim. I said I had 5 months in Britain, and another 2.5 in the UK (original post was poorly written). I think that gives me at least a conversational understanding of britishness. Your contribution to the topic has seemed to be mostly to take issue with the point without actually contributing to the discussion one way or the other.

Yet you did not know that colour plays a part, so you were wrong then. We have pretty much solved the West Indian British issues we had in the 1980s, now we are struggling with the Asian British - so colour does indeed play a part, both from some white people not regarding them as British and some Asians (it seems to be mainly Pakistani descendants) not regarding themselves as being British.

And you were wrong about white British being a minority in London.


Why not ask someone who is from London if white British are a minority in London? Why not ask someone British if colour plays a part in being British? What exactly did you contribute other than inaccuracy?

[Dhrizzle]

I have not taken anything badly, I asked how you knew what was relevant to Britishness which you have not done. You fudged that.

Nor have you explained how white British in London are not a minority, even though they are 45% of the people and are under represented in power, which you said was the criteria.

White British are still the largest ethnic group with 3.7m, next closest is White non-British/Irish with 1m.

I pointed out that 45% are white British.

All humans are humans. What an insightful statement. Moving on from that wisdom, the fact is that some of us humans allow religion to provide us with the warrant to wage the horrors that you referenced against our fellow humans to a greater degree than others. And further, a disproportionately large number of those people live in and around the are referenced in the title of this thread.

[Darkeon]

I completely stand with his opinion.

[B]It's very sad when the Dalai Lama is a more staunch defender of Christendom than the Pope

And terribly disappointing that the above is nothing but the truth we live in. Well said.

[Ealyssa]

Isn't the Dalai Lama trying to reinstate the pampered theocracy in Tibet? I guess if anyone would know the harm a religion could have over a population, it'd be him

wtf ? Are you hopefully trolling ? Or just spouting random words ? He surended his political powers, against the will of the majority of the diaspora (there is now an independent governement in Dharamsala, with a prime minister in charge) and he talked about ending the dalai lama reincarnation cycle aka no more dalai lama after him (for some political reason, since china may be able to dictate who will be the next reincarnation)

So no, he is far from "reinstoring a theocracy" and tibet is still firmly controled by the chinese by the way...

[Collegeguy]

I'm sure it's just a matter of time anyway. Eventually, fake economies based on oil will run out, and all those people will flood somewhere. Germany will be the easy target.

Yes I'm sure a nation of ~80 million Europeans will turn into an Arab nation just because they accept a bunch of refugees.

https://populationpyramid.net/germany/2015/
So let's look at something. Germany current and future fertile population which is every from 1¬34 years old consist of 15% of total population.
Out of 80 million germans that is approx 12 million people that should be responsible within next 20 or so years to make birth index above 2.1 in order to maintain german population.

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2n7AQ8XaCb...irthEurope.gif
Germany birth rate is astronomically low which is 1.4 per 2 parents.

Now let's look at some statistics regarding migrants/refugees or whatever cute semantics suits you.
https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=mi...GgD9dqQd43M%3A

Overwhelming majority of them are young males in fertile age. Coincidentally they can do same job young german people should be doing but fail to do so. It's also worth noting that fertility of your typicial middle eastern people is above 2.1

Are you allowed to connect the dots or is your political correctness so overwhelming that you have to give me a knee jerk reaction of how wrong I am after you're done reading my post?

Actually Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and the UAe are all looking at alternatives on how to keep their economies stable.

Bro if this trend continues I doubt fertility rates of middle east people would greatly surpass those of Germany.

I hope you're right and I am wrong because the way things are progressing it looks like a population change in next 50 or so years.

[Bollocks]

How so? If fertility rates is the main reason as to why there will be a population change in the next 50 years or so and fertility rates in the middle east are falling, then according to the data you have provided me its not a population shift is unlikely to happen. And even if it did as long as middle east people hold and respect the same basic rights of those of Germany then it should be no problem; granted I don't live in Germany and have never been in Europe so I could be wrong as well.

[Oktoberfest]

I wonder how many Europeans would be happy if say a massive amount of Americans moved to their country and took over their govt. No? why not?

Historically when foreign invaders have come in and taken over a country, they haven't needed anywhere near a majority to do it. Forcible subjugation and political intrigue are far more practical tools of conquest than mass migrations. The idea of taking over a democratic country through long term demographic shifts is just a hypothetical one for now, and hasn't really played out even in places like the US where relatively recent arrivals massively outnumber WASPs.

I wonder if Endus will have a moral dilemma on whether to lock this thread or not.

He has to check his oppression olympics tier list to see where Tibetan monks rank in regards to Muslims.

[Oneirophobia]

anyone who has spent event a moment with Muslims knows that they are probably more decent of human beings than the rest of us. This is retardedly racist and cultural supremacy at its finest.

You couldn't even wait for one sentence to go by before immediately doing what you're condemning the Dalai lama for, while of course being disparaging to the mentally ill. Good work.

Fertility rates 2015 est.:

Somalia: 5.99
Afghanistan: 5.33
Ethiopia: 5.15
Iraq: 4.12
Eritrea: 4.02
Pakistan: 2.75
Syria: 2.60

These are the countries, from where most of the migrants are coming to Europe (or more accurately to Germany 1.44).

Although the fertility rates are worldwide dropping, the difference is large enough to cause a very significant population shift.

USA people adleast would be more relatable in term of western values that someone from middle east.

I wonder if his head is going to explode, because by definition Tibetans should be on the Top spots of this list.
