A German pastor has decided to hold a Muslim funeral for a 17-year-old who died fighting for Islamic State in Syria, leaving many outraged. Pastor Sieghard Wilm of the protestant St. Pauli Church in Hamburg is stirring strong emotions after he made the choice to hold a Muslim funeral in his church for 17-year-old ‘Florent’, who died fighting for the Islamic state in Syria in July. The funeral will take place today.

Pastor Sieghard Wilm’s Protestant church is the same which hit headlines in 2013 after stripping out the pews and converting the nave into a migrant centre for newcomers from Ghana, Nigeria, Togo, and the Ivory Coast, according to a Deutsche Welle report at the time. The sub-Saharan Africans were economic migrants to Libya living as guest workers, but fled north to Europe rather than south to their own homes when the civil war broke out.

Has the pastor converted to Islam?
How many of his prior congregation have stuck with him?
To: detective
The government was probably paying him a lot more to host the refugees than his dwindling congregation was dropping into the collection plate.

He'll probably get beheaded by a mob of "offended" muzzies. Angela Merkel will then set the perps up in state-paid seafront villas on the Baltic. Thanks detective.
