Cardinal Gerhard Müller has warned in an interview that mass migration and the growing influence of Islam threaten Europe. He is saying what Pope Leo ought to be saying, but will not, as the cheerful American from Peru remains mentally caught in the coils of bomfoggery (Brotherhood of Man, Fatherhood of God). Cardinal Muller understands the menace of Islam. Pope Leo does not.
More on Cardinal Müller’s warning of a future “confrontation” in Europe between Muslims and the indigenous — Christian and post-Christian — population, can be found here: “Cardinal Müller: Mass migration of Muslims to Europe ‘can only lead to a confrontation,’” by Andreas Wailzer, LifeSiteNews, July 7, 2026:
Cardinal Gerhard Müller warned that Europe is threatened by mass migration and the growing influence of Islam.
In a German-language interview on the YouTube channel Kontrapunkt, Müller addressed the issues of mass migration, Islam, and low birth rates that are leading to a seismic demographic shift in Europe.
While he acknowledged that Muslims who come to live in European countries have the right to practice their religion, he said that “with this mass immigration of Muslim fellow citizens from cultures foreign to all of Europe, the problem is precisely that Islam is not just a religion … but that it also always claims political power and not only influences the culture but becomes dominant within it.”
“And that can only lead to a confrontation with our Christian culture – our view of humanity, which is based on the belief that every person is created by God, that all people are equal before God, and that this must also be reflected in equality before the law,” Müller continued.
“And that’s precisely where I see the problems – problems that aren’t just on the horizon, but are in fact already here – namely, that parts of the public sphere are being taken over, or that in schools and kindergartens, even Christian children are required to observe Muslim customs during Ramadan, or that Christian children, teenagers, or adults are restricted in their normal civic lives – their Christian lives,” he stated.
“And we see this, after all, in some cities in Europe where there’s a Muslim majority: while individuals there may well be peaceful, there can also be a group, a minority, that is aggressive and then seizes power and seeks to control and manipulate everyone else according to their own ideas.”…
Cardinal Müller is warning that Europe must not become a victim of mass immigration by Muslims who, he forthrightly declares, are hostile to Christianity. In every Muslim country, Christians are persecuted, and worse. He objects to the notion that “we in Europe are going to solve the world’s problems.” He sees that these tens of millions of migrants in Europe are already a tremendous burden.
He said the idea that “millions or billions of people are now coming to Europe from Asia and Africa” is “not even technically possible, in regards to the healthcare system, the school system, and the education system.”
Cardinal Müller might also have added “the judicial system” and “the prison system,” because the crime rates of Muslim migrants far exceed those of the natives. In France, for example, Muslims are 10% of the population, but 60% of the prisoners. In Germany, they are 7% of the population, but 30% of the prisoners. In the UK, they are 6.5% of the population, but 20% of the prisoners. The cost of incarceration is very high. In the UK, for example, it costs the state about 60,000 pounds, or $80,000 per year, for each prisoner.
He insists that “we in Europe are not going to solve the world’s problems.” Europeans must recognize the permanent gulf between Islam and the West, and recognize that in every Muslim land Christians are persecuted. The Europeans can save themselves, just, from demographic conquest by Muslims within Europe who continue to produce large families, while Europeans are not reproducing themselves. Europe must not only severely limit, or even better, end Muslim immigration altogether, but also put in place pro-natalist policies that will lift the fertility rates of the indigenous Europeans far beyond the replacement level. Only thus will the civilization of the West be preserved.

I can’t believe this is real. I wonder how fast his phones were ringing off the wall to apologize to Islam and submit to the Islamic Pope.
Pope Leo was on the migrant island the same day calling for even more Muslims. The snakes are in the west by the millions.
Esben Juhl says
How unpleasent it sounds, Cardinal Muller is of course correct in his assesment to the rising problem
of mass immigration from mainly moslem dominant countries in North Africa and Asia!
Wonder when the EU takes SERIOUS and fysical stemps to stop and evict immigrants arriving??????
Do the EU leadership want civil war all over Europe or what??????
Sinc.Reg.
A concerned european,
Samer says
I hope that Cardinal Gerhard Müller will be a new Martin Luther who will shake the Pope’s throne and awaken him from his slumber so that he can see the challenges and dangers facing Western societies.
John1 says
I know several parish priests who privately abhor Islam and its dangerous violent political militaristic belief system. They can’t say it publicly, like this cardinal, because they are low men on the totem pole.
James Lincoln says
I know some too, John1.
Excellent priests.

Good for this man, speaking the Truth.
He’s right on every point And one that every nation’s leaders and people need to understand is:
” it also always claims political power and not only influences the culture but becomes dominant within it.”
“Man dominates man to his injury,” and this is seen when muzzlims succeed in ‘claiming political power and influencing the culture’ becoming ***dominant*** to “dominate man to his injury.”
No school child, no young woman, escapes this “culture takeover.” No one escapes the “domination.”
GE says
Finally, a Cardinal who gets it—
Too bad he’s not pope.
Tim gallagher says
Congratulations to this priest for waking up to the truth about evil islam and fearlessly telling it like it is. That is what a true Christian should do, tell the unpalatable truth. I hope he gets a lot of support but I suspect most of the clergy will be their usual pathetic selves like that fool of a pope and his fellow lefties.
Westman says
The West is defeating itself with men and women competing in the workforce, contraception, decline of religious belief, decline of the extended family, and divorce.
Why should a woman choose a large family when marriage is unstable and it limits her career opportunities? Remember the Somali childcare scams that had no children and parents were paid to sign up for the daycare they didn’t use? The extended family looked after the children, no outside child care was needed.
Compared to our great-grandparents we, in the West, are rich in material things yet almost strangers to each other – and that is our weakness. We will watch society be changed by Islam and our leaders will do nothing because they are actually status seekers.who “lead” from behind, following the “GPS” of polls.
The family is the stable building block of a nation. Can we actually say the West has stronger families than Islam?
Beans🫘 says
You don’t understand anything about Islamic life in the west.
Muslims operate completely differently from us. Most importantly, they do not work, especially the women. This gives them a lot of room to stay home and have a bunch of of kids.
Number two, Muslims are gods at playing the system. America crushes European welfare system if you know what you are doing. It crushes it completely. There are tons of grants and programs Muslims stay at home all day and apply for. Childcare, special benefits you don’t even know about. All the tax benefits and free Cadillac healthcare .
Their entire economic ecosystem is built around welfare and grants. They only shop at Islamic grocery stores using your tax dollars, and there is more than food stamps there is other programs. And on top, they have social food banks, only for Muslims, they’re supposed to be for all but they simply have no signs on these buildings, and they do it using your tax dollars.
So don’t tell me about Somalians and how we should learn. It is all fraudulent. I know so much more but I kept it short. The entire ecosystem runs on 1.Taxpayer programs and grants 2. Cash economy 3. Tax fraud.
The ones that run the stores for example, they become the middle class in a nice 3,000 sq foot home. Their day cares as well, are in other states. They suck the money away from us, and pocket the money and run at ten percent capacity to satisfy whatever Muslims are in vacation, maybe working two jobs. The rest is empty excess capacity just to benefit the owners.
There is so much more going on. But you may ask why don’t they catch them. Because the government has limited targets it can pursue, they go after the blatant fraud, the dumb people. The smarter ones cover their tracks which leads to more man hours required to convict. The government wants an easier headline.
These Muslims have complex webs of multiple addresses, contracts that float around between differing names and differing non profits. Nothing is set in stone with the smart scammers. If they feel they’re maybe having some heat on their back, they change the name of the company, transfer the contract to a relative. It goes deep.
To top it off, they have Democrat protection. This is key. The entire Democratic apparatus will come to protect their loyal voters if need be. Muslims are indeed smart. For their vote they demand concrete results. Don’t give me some stupid policy, show me the the damn money for my community. Shut up and give me money or we stay home if the imam tells us. It’s that simple. White people are fools, the cow in the field chewing grass and popping on the field for the Muslims.

Westman, Christianity has *never* demanded Purdah for women. Working class women have long worked on farms or the family business–and even in their own businesses. It was only the nobility–and as of the 19th century, the Middle Class–where married women often did not work outside the home. Nowhere does Jesus preach this.
And–with all respect–your lauding the way Islam treats children is fairly appalling.
