Talk:Islam in the Netherlands

message: There are one million people with a 'muslim' background in the Netherlands. All Iranians are counted for expamle, but many of them have christian backgrounds. And not all of people that really have muslim backgrounds are practicising muslims. There are less then 500 musks in the country. If similar methods to the ones used to count for example Catholics are used, 200,000 to 300,000 is more likely.

No, the bulk of Dutch Muslims is made up out of Moroccans and Turks, almost all of whom are Muslim, and of whom there are a LOT more than 300,000.
:This is not true, the number has in fact been declining for several years now. Only 66% of second generation Turks in the Netherlands are muslim, and over 60% of all Iranians are atheist as well. I thought the number of Moroccan atheists was something around 10 to 15%. So in fact you can't say 'allmost all of them are Muslim'. I think the number of around 700.000-800.000 is very reasonable.NeoRetro (talk) 16:22, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

message: Hi, I've added a lot of new information to the page, about the countries of origin, geographical spread of Muslim population, income, housing, education and employment, political participation, relations between Muslims and native Dutch, and radicalisation of some young Muslims. I'm done for a while now though! If there are any issues with any of the info I added, I'll gladly adapt though. Thanks to Misheu for already doing some reformatting of the (sub)topics.

message: This article fails to mention the Dutch East Indies, today the Republic of Indonesia, which was colonized and governed by the Dutch for 350 years. The Republic of Indonesia is the state with the largest Muslim population in the world and there was only about a century of overlap between the adoption of Islam an the start of colonization. This means that formally from 1800 up to 1949 the Netherlands were the empire/state with the largest Muslim population in the world.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.93.142.210 (talk) 21:01, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

message: It is strange that no difference is made between a Dutch born with dual nationality and a foreigner with dual nationality, one of them being Dutch.
It is just as strange, that cabinet members in Dutch congress go out of their way to favour cheap migrant labour, with dual passport, while narry a thought is made about Dutch born, or children of dutch citizens born overseas, with dual citizenship
Seems to me that the Dutch cabinet has a severity of demencia about their own, and favour being bribed in order to migrate to, for example the United States of North America, then to make certain a form of quo is maintained.
Question for these cabinet members would be> Do you REALLY think, that your sons and daughters would not be held to account, that is, if you had them? A clear question, without doubt one that they themselves would refuse to ask themselves.
I suppose most any is awaiting the book: The selling of Europe to the Middle East, by Petroleum Today.
What are those statistics, in reality?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.39.126.16 (talk) 21:17, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
