Hi guys, I could not beleive it when I read the other day that the second most popular name in the UK for 2007 is Mohammad. Now I have nothing against different religions or skin colors in fact I find the Muslim religion very interesting and intrigueing but what got to me was the statistics behind it. In the UK muslims make up 6% of our population but their birth rate is 3 times that of the national average. In my view it is hard to house everyone in the UK as it is and keep everyone in jobs but by my calculations our population in this country will go through the roof within the next decade. What do you all think?

I think the 6% of them are living in the neighbourhoods near my house as their are millions of them.
