France is one of the highest Muslim countries in Europe with 8% of Muslims... It was 7.5% in 2009, WHAT AN INVASION!!!

Can we really say Europe is lost and Muslim will become the majority in a few decades? xD

BS. In France there is a blanket ban on the counting of people based on religion and ethnicity. So there is no reliable statistics available on religious demography. That said, most of the demographers agree that the French Muslim population stands at around 15% right now, making it the largest Muslim population in Western Europe.

Sources?
And no statistics based on ethnicity or religion are not forbidden...
It's just that the national census willingly doesn't take this into account.
But your 15% are just coming straight up from your asse man, if you consider as Muslim anyone coming from a Muslim country the number is around 5 million in France (which makes around 7 or 8%) and if you take only those that are really practicing their faith the number crash at something like 1 or 2 millions.

Regarding the percentage of Muslims in France, it's worth pointing out that France purposefully does not collect these kinds of statistics. There's no way to really know the percentages. I looked up the estimates in the online "CIA Factbook" 7 or 8 years ago, and not since then. In any case, it's clear that any such estimates would be out of date given the current crisis.

Again no, the GOVERNMENT willingly doesn't take this into account, that doesn't mean that associations or institutes for example can't make such studies. And they do.
