German taxi driver who converted from Islam fined over Bible quote sticker

Jesus is the best thing I could recommend to anyone because He changed my life. That’s why I have the sticker on my car for anyone who is interested to see,’ Jalil Mashali said.

A German taxi driver and Christian convert from Islam has been fined over a Bible quote sticker on his car’s rear window due to what his city refers to as unlawful “religious advertising.”

Jalil Mashali was threatened with a fine of up to 1,000 euros in October due to a small sticker on his taxi car that displays a cross and reads, “Jesus – I am the way. The truth. And the life,” Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) International reported. The city of Essen argues that the sticker violates an ordinance applying to taxis that prohibits “religious advertising.”

The Christian convert refused to remove the sticker, and city authorities are now demanding a fine of 88.50 euros.

Mashali is challenging the fine with the backing of ADF International. He argues that “due to the content, location, and small size of the sticker,” it does not constitute advertising.

Europe needs another D-Day Invasion, this time to drive all the Islamics out of Western Civilization and then arrest the radical left wing tyrants who flooded Europe with people who hate them.
Another 20 years and all of Europe will be gone. They will tear down the churches, cathedrals and monuments, all in the name of the pedophile known as Mohamed.
Stupid, stupid, stupid.

It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign those of his household. - Matthew 10:25

I'm betting that a sticker depicting two males "locked in carnal embrace" and with the motto "Love Is Love!" wouldn't have been targeted by the Police.

It would be nice to finally see some cultural confidence.

No, they aren’t. This ordinance had originally been passed against Muslim slogans, now, unfortunately, the shoe is on the other foot.

Sad but true.
