According to an article on Breitbart, Christians in Germany’s migrant housing are being forced to hide their faith due to intimidation and death threats by Muslims.
At a recent Frankfurt news conference, Mahin Mousapour said that Christians purposefully hide their crosses and Bibles to avoid hate attacks by Muslims.
Mousapour is from Iran. A former Muslim, she became a Christian over 25 years ago and now pastors Persian Father House, an Evangelical Free church in Frankfurt. Fearing reprisal, refugees tell people in their complex that they are only visiting friends when attending her church.
Ms Mousapour was joined at the news conference by politician Erika Steinbach who serves as a member of the Bundestag. It is a German equivalent of the U.S. House of Representatives or Canada and England’s House of Commons.
Mousapour said Muslims tell Christians that they are “impure as a dog” adding:
“Toys of Christian children are being destroyed. Christian asylum seekers are told to not only wash their dishes after eating, but also they must clean the entire kitchen as it would otherwise be ‘unclean’.”
Further she said Christians are scared of complaining because they fear losing their refugee status due to the favouritism being shown Muslim refugees by the current German administration.
She cited an example of Muslim extremists threatening to kill 14 Iranian Christians in a North Rhine-Westphaliaeave camp if they do not convert to Islam. The group fled Iran because of the country’s hard-line persecution of Christians and this persecution has now followed them to Germany.
The hate is even filtering out of migrant housing. Mousapour said she was similarly threatened with a knife on the streets of Germany because of her faith.
According to the German politician, Germany has gone too far in respecting Muslim extremists. She described it as a ‘misconceived tolerance.’
She added Germany is a Christian-based country and it should not have to change its views and values to accommodate Muslims.
