Austrian Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn gave the unexpected warning on Sunday during a special celebration for the Church festival "Holy Name of Mary".
According to the Archdiocese of Vienna, the Cardinal said: "Will there be an Islamic conquest of Europe? Many Muslims want that and say: Europe is at its end. We must oppose this agenda."
He asked God to have mercy on Europe and to show mercy to its people, which he said "are in danger of forfeiting our Christian heritage."
Cardinal Schoenborn, who is also the Archbishop of Vienna, explained that people could already feel this loss, "not only economically, but above all, in human and religious matters."
The statement by the Carnival came as many places across Austria have been commemorating the 333th anniversary of the Battle of Vienna.
During the battle in 1683, combined Christian forces defeated over 100,000 soldiers from the Ottoman Empire.
The battle was fought by the Habsburg Monarchy, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Holy Roman Empire against the invading Muslim Ottoman Empire.
Polish King John III Sobieski famously commanded the Christian army toward its victory.
The Ottoman soldiers had already started to take the Austrian capital Vienna which was defended by only 10,000 Habsburg soldiers when Polish horsemen attacked them from the rear and devastated the Turkish army - which was forced to retreat.
The 71-year-old Cardinal has been linked as one of the most likely candidates to take over the position of Pope, although in previous elections at the end it was decided that he was still too young.
For those of you who aren't catholic. This guy used to be a moderate conservative that was always considered for the Papacy. Noted for his open-mindedness, and not particularly loved by conservative and very right leaning Catholics. That's he's gone and just said it, especially with this pope, means things are getting weird.

Carson Anderson
>Neo Crusade Damn, that sounds so cool.
Jack Ross
then things that makes me laugh is irony. the same "Christian heritage" was once the invader.
>Also don't you have your impending nuclear war with India to worry about? nah. india is just blowing smoke from it ass. they do that every 5 or so years. it will pass.
Joseph Garcia

Jayden Wood
Fuck off.sand nigger.
Can't wait until India finally obliterates Pakistan from the face of the world.
Lincoln Nguyen
Christian 'heritage' was never an invader. I'm glad to see that Pakistani history classes are taught with the same materials that militant atheists and neo-pagans spout.
Christianity migrated freely from the Holy Land to Rome and was adopted much the same. Even when outlawed it never sought to forcibly convert or wipe out the culture that came before it, and did it's best to integrate local customs to make it more appealing (literally one of the reasons it did so well). It was only an invader religion in Europe when Charlemagne forcibly converted Saxons before killing them, and that was quite a few years after the fall of Rome. Western heritage is one part Greco-Roman thought, one part Christian thought, and one part local flavor.

>Christianity migrated freely from the Holy Land to Rome Aren't muslims also migrated freely? Isn't this what you guys keep complaining about?
Thomas Rodriguez
You're a dumb fuck, the India/Pakistan relationship is forced to be a permanent standoff because China and India hate each-others leading to China supporting Pakistan.
William Flores
dam. it is just really too easy to trigger you folks. also if you think that is funny. wait till you find out that every 72 minutes a US solider commits suicide. its hilarious to me.
Dylan Ross
No. It's not. Christianity as a belief migrated. The religion itself spread through its message, and was preached by Roman subjects in Roman territory. There was no movement of people, and no desire to destroy the culture or people it moved to.
We're complaining about your goatfucking cousins coming in who have a legitimate desire to kill the people and replace the culture.
Luis Cooper
I think the wogs are due for an arse kicking desu

Muslims swarmed out of Arabia like locusts and destroyed half of Christian civilization. The islamic legacy is turning the middle east into a hellhole
Gabriel Hughes
Islam from its very inception spread by the sword. The fact that there is not a single Christian state left in the middle-east should give you a clue of what Islam is like.
As for those modern migrants, they are invaders. The only difference between them and an actual army is that they lack weapons.
Nolan Brooks
>So, are you guys gonna sign up for the Neo Crusade? Got to get rid of the current Green-socialist commie Pope first.
Julian Morris
Make that faggot an anti-pope so you can forcibly remove the kike-endorsed spic in Rome already.
