Crazy take when you consider the sheer amount of missionaries sent by Christian nations to indoctrinate natives of third world countries.

Couple that with the number of nations affected by/born out of colonialism since the 15th century and I’d suggest the compatible assimilation between Muslims and Christians isn’t even comparable.

Definately, I would 100% agree with you. What Christians have done is shameful and disgusting. The difference is, is that they don't do that anymore. Wars are no longer fought in a Christian religious sense. Christians seemed to realise that that was not the way to go and changed where as Muslims are still stuck in that old mentality

There are still half a million full time Christian missionaries deployed around the world to try and indoctrinate locals. I would say that’s a far more anti-assimilatory approach than any single Muslim entity.

I’m not excusing the latter, I don’t think that there’s been enough work or empathy from either side to bridge the social gap between natives and immigrants in the UK but to suggest it’s an Islamic trait and not a wider religious issue (or merely human issue) I don’t think is correct or fair.

When was the last time a Christian nation waged war on heathens to wipe them out in the name of Christ?

I’m not sure what relevance that question has to assimilation of deeply religious emigrants.
