Churchgoers in Europe face ‘bloodless persecution’

Churchgoers in Europe face ‘bloodless persecution’ | News | The Christian Institute: Churchgoers in Europe are “heading for a bloodless persecution” at the hands of secularists, the head of a European think-tank has said.

Dr Gudrun Kugler cautioned that, while it would be wrong to compare “injustices” in Europe to those in North Korea, India or Pakistan, religious freedom here is nevertheless a “hard-won achievement.”

And, warning that “advocates” were needed to keep religious freedom alive, she called on church leaders and church attenders to “speak out more clearly and boldly when they see religious freedom being undermined.”
