“According to the latest update of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), there are currently 8,052 migrants in Serbia, the majority of them in 19 refugee centers across the country. Their stated countries of origin are Afghanistan, Syria, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iraq, Iran, Morocco and Palestine.”
Hmmm, what do all those countries (and “Palestine”) have in common? Could it be an ideology that holds Christianity in contempt and considers Christians “the most vile of created beings” (cf. Qur’an 98:6)?
“Serbia: Migrants rob Belgrade churchgoers in the middle of religious service,” by Tanja Milovanović, Remix News, June 4, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Two migrants of unknown origin entered the St. Alexander Nevsky church in the Serbian capital Belgrade on Sunday and then robbed several attendants of the liturgy of their money and mobile phones. Those attending the church service managed to catch one of the thieves and hand him over to police responding to the scene, but the other got away.
“There were two of them. They broke into the church during the liturgy, which was in progress, and they stole two purses along with three mobile phones,” Vajo Jović, the elder of the Serbian Orthodox Church, told Serbian news site nova.rs.
“Upon entering the temple, they split up on two sides, and after the people saw what was happening, they managed to catch one of them and take away his mobile phones and the money he stole,” Jović said. “The other managed to escape. He took two purses, in one there were 3,500 dinars, while in the other there were 18,000, which was the entire pension of one woman.”
Jović expressed outrage over a robbery that occurred in a house of worship.
“We handed that young man over to the police, while the other managed to escape,” Jović said. “This is an insult. Isn’t anything sacred to people,, such as the liturgy? Terrible.”
In January this year, Greece relocated to the mainland several thousand migrants crammed on its Mediterranean Island near the Turkish coast. While the onset of the coronavirus pandemic has kept them in Greece, the country has reopened its asylum office in the second half of May, leading to an increase of the migrants seeking to reach Western Europe via the Balkans migration route.
Although there have been a number of attacks on churches by migrants in recent times, outright robberies of parishioners appears to be a new escalation.
According to the latest update of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), there are currently 8,052 migrants in Serbia, the majority of them in 19 refugee centers across the country. Their stated countries of origin are Afghanistan, Syria, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iraq, Iran, Morocco and Palestine. The Serbian government lifted all its coronavirus-related movement restrictions on May 14 and the migrants now have freedom of movement on the territory of the country….

There will be no stopping this Hijra unless the Countries of Europe Unite and put a stop to it. It’s no longer just a question of cultural suicide but with the Corona virus and a Second Wave expect to hit, Europe is begging for annihilation. Those who choose to claim my words are bigoted; time is on my side for both of us to see who is right and I know where my heart and mind are set. Those of you who feel this way why haven’t you pressured the Gulf States, Russia, China, Japan, SE Asia? You know they won’t agree to to take them but either have commonality or land to make it happen

The answer to the church elder’s question is that NOTHING about the Christian liturgy is considered sacred by Muslims. In fact, they consider Christianity to be displeasing and insulting to their own god, Allah. To Muslims Christianity is a vile and corrupt religion. However, something that is sacred to Muslims is the obligation they feel to obey their god’s request to eliminate all other religions from the face of the Earth.

Ill drink to that.

I was in a local gun store the other day looking at concealed carry pistols (CCW).
The salesman, a certified NRA instructor, recommended a Sig Sauer .380 P238. He uses it as a backup for his Springfield 1911.
We got talking, he happens to be a devout Christian who provides security at a local church.
Lots of nice .380s out there, but I’m leaning toward the Sig…
Wellington says
I relish your post, James.
Muscular Christians do Christianity no disservice and actually protect it from all kinds of destruction, which only helps to prove that the bad guys of the world should, must, always fear the good guys of the world rather than the other way around.
Civilization counts on this. It must.
Murad says
Bless you, Wellington
Turn the other cheek means turn the sour cheek towards your enemy. Defend yourself. Self defence is honorable and not sinful. Serve and help but be vicious when attacked for no reason other than fun.
It’s a crime to let criminals free and be arrested before turning them to pulp: First make a dough of them then get them arrested.
Such daring devilness to enter a church. What are they doing in Europe in the first place? Which traitors brought them. Oh yeah lefties need voters.
It’s democracy stupid! Maintain democracy even if democracy causes the loss of your country and women to invaders.

I don’t believe this is the correct interpretation of “turn the other cheek”, Murad.
That being said, I don’t think it is in any way unChristian to defend against those trying to kill you and your loved ones.
Simo Hayha says
GET IT! I have TWO Sig .380 pistols, though I gave one to my brother, as he only had a double-barrel 12 gauge shotgun for home defense. But the Sig truly IS a masterpiece of the highest quality engineering. NEVER a fail to fire, eject, or chamber, regardless type of ammo! The other one, an aircraft grade aluminum alloy frame will go to one of my daughters after my “Bucket” day.
James Lincoln says
Thank you for your reply, Simo Hayha.
I will take your advice!
And a wonderful gift that you gave your brother…

Serbia: Muslim migrants rob Belgrade churchgoers in the middle of church service
……………..
I had thought that Serbia was too smart to take in any of these Muslim thugs.
Glad to hear at least that the parishioners caught one of these perps and held him for the police. Hope they catch his buddy and deport them both.
Serbian lady says
My grandson is carrying a concealed weapon in his church. He tells me there are others. I wouldn’t advise any bad actors to try anything illegal there.

Its not theft when muslims rob Christians. They were there only to collect what was owed to them.
mortimer says
The Koran tells Muslims to attack Christians, fight them to the death (q-t-l) and extort money from them because they believe in the divinity of Christ. The Koran says this is the reason for fighting them.
KORAN 9.30 is a call for Muslims to fight Christians ‘to the death’ (q-t-l) because they say Jesus is the Son of Allah … the belief in the Deity of Christ is the justification for murdering Christians.
grandpahalfdime says
Interesting, the Qur’an says not to steal. The punishment for stealing is to cut off the right hand.
Oh, apparently that only applies to other Muslims, because we’ve seen them rob, rape, enslave and murder innocent non-Muslims and they are considered heroes.
So, what makes anyone think they will honor all the BLM, ANTIFA and other groups once they take over or once police are emasculated?
All you have to do is look to Malaysia, Europe, anywhere Islam has taken control or has huge populations,

grandpahalfdime, stealing from Infidels is indeed Halal. The “Prophet” Muhammed raided caravans, took booty from those he attacked, and also kidnapped and enslaved them. This is all completely Islamic.
