All Tomorrow's Euro-Muslims

I'm sorry to say so, but I'm a french future-studies consultant and analyst, and what you're saying about demographic trends is really biased.
For example, you're using the lowest figures for Europe birthrate (France is near 1.9 / 2).
Secondly, foreign people are really quickly changing their way of life when migrating. To be simple, a Arab woman has 3.5 children in her country of origin. When she arrives in Europe, her birthdate (not her, this type of population rate...) gets down between 2.1 and 3. And her daughter will be quite near the European-origins women figures... So you can't extrapolate from those figures that way. Anyway, your point of view is interesting to read.
