Church Desecration in Europe Under Islam
American Thinker.com ^ | March 2, 2021 | Raymond Ibrahim

Posted on 03/02/2021 4:56:29 AM PST by Kaslin

A few days after Muslim migrants firebombed an 800-year-old Swedish church twice over the course of four days -- once on Jan. 20, 2021 and another on Jan. 24 -- a Feb 4 report came out saying that 829 “hate crimes” against churches in Sweden have been reported between just 2012-2018, or about 138 attacks on average every year.

Thus, the churches of Sweden join those of other Western European nations that have taken in sizeable Muslim migrants. In France, for example, two churches are vandalized every day. According to a 2019 PI-News report, 1,063 attacks on Christian churches or symbols (crucifixes, icons, statues) were registered in France in 2018. This represents a 17 percent increase compared to the previous year (2017), when 878 attacks were registered -- meaning such attacks are only going from bad to worse.

They are also getting increasingly vile. As one example, vandals used human excrement to draw a cross on the Notre-Dame des Enfants Church in Nimes in 2019; consecrated bread was also found thrown outside among garbage. One week later, vandals desecrated and smashed crosses and statues at Saint-Alain Cathedral in Lavaur; they mangled the arms of a crucified Christ in a mocking manner and burned altar materials.

Similar reports are coming from Germany. After reporting how four separate churches were vandalized and/or torched over the course of four weeks in 2019, PI-News, a German news site, explained: “In this country, there is a creeping war against everything that symbolizes Christianity: attacks on summit crosses, on holy figures on the way, on churches and recently also on cemeteries.”

Germany should have never let the Turks come to Germany. It was a big mistake

I prefer to think in the terms of 1 Peter 4:12-14

"Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you."

The America haters identify closely with the Chinese and Islam and their tickets to paradise. Down the stretch it could be Mao on the inside Mohammed on the outside. At the wire it’s too close to call or Mohammed by a head.

The Krauts and Turks were allies during WWI. My Grampa fought the Turks in France. He said they were vicious. So no suprise that Germany likes Turkey.

Most Euro countries brought the muzzies into their own countries voluntarily, now live with it fools. The koran has 68 passages in it encouraging the muzzie to lie, cheat, steal and even kill the Infidel. HELLO?

Does any rational decent person really believe that the fire that destroyed Notre Dame was an accident? The French and other Europeans are learning that cultural suicide is neither painless nor pretty. The Eurofools have forgotten history. America is now being led by the same clowns and will also suffer.

The first sign of Sweden’s capitulation to islam will be when they remove the cross from their flag.

CONVERT THEM !

The Vatican under the command of Pope Francis is busy rebuking ownership of firearms for personal protection and supressing followers of the pre Vatican 2 liturgy form including the latin mass But when it comes to other forms of mono theistic beliefs such as the One World Abu Dhabi Movement. Francis refuses to say one word disclaiming and decrying what practice adherents of the Islam code Sharia not only claim, but truly believe that God has authorized them to any evil means using force or decption used to convert is justified as well as kill those who refuse to submit to their version of Gods will

What makes you think they removed the cross? I did a search and it's still there

I also did a search of Norway, and here is their flad

Now here is the Finland, as you can see it also has a cross on it

And finally The flag of Denmark

As you can see they all have a cross on their flag.
