Europe totters but does not collapse unable to pay its own debts. The greater burdens are its loss of faith, its secular foundations (which are no foundations at all) and the Muslims that it welcomed for so long because of a refusal to have large families.
These systemic evils weaken its fabric and remove all walls of protection. Europe now sits like a defenseless maiden waiting to be captured by a Muslim who has lusted for her for centuries. Who can protect her? These are foreign invaders who already live within her borders and who beckon thousands of others “Come over and help us”, not to preach but to destroy the gospel. Nevertheless, Mary does not forget the missionaries which Europe has sent forth and the great saints that have arisen from her.
