The above photo represents a graffito found a month ago in Vienna, on the ground of a popular walkers' and bikers' promenade outside Augarten Park.
It says: "Occupy all churches! We will rise!" (Besetzt alle Kirchen. We will rise.)
This kind of direct threat to Christians has become increasingly common in Europe.
A voluntary, non-profit organisation based in Vienna, the Observatory on Intolerance and Discrimination against Christians in Europe , has been established, and issued a report documenting 241 cases of intolerance and attacks against Christians and their institutions in 2013.
Among them are arson, gun attacks, bombs and Molotov cocktails.
Anti-Christian graffiti were sprayed on the outside wall of a cathedral in Austria, reading: "We do not want your crosses" and including a swastika. So much for the ridiculously false claim, much beloved by so many "free-thinkers" and Leftists, of a closeness between Nazism and Christianity. In fact, these Neo-Nazis are continuing a florid anti-Christian tradition going all the way back to the Führer.
Dr. Gudrun Kugler, director of the Observatory, explains: "The increasingly secular society in Europe has less and less space for Christianity."
No doubt many of these aggressive acts will be the work of Muslims, whose number, like that of anti-Christian threats, is also increasing in Europe. But not all this violence is caused by Muslims: some of it comes from intolerant secularists.
For example, among the most recent cases are a Coptic church set on fire in Berlin, but also another Berlin church seriously damaged because it offered its premises to abortion opponents. Secularist attacks were not limited to property: Christians peacefully assembled at the so called “March for life”, a pro life demonstration in Berlin, were targeted by Left-wing extremists who showered them with colour paint, insulted them and shouted vulgarly.
And in the night between 25th and 26th September a pharmacy in Neukölln, Germany, was vandalised because of the owner Andreas Kersten’s refusal to sell the morning-after pill, which he explained as motivated by reasons of conscience.
On a website of self-proclaimed “anti-fascists”, the authors of this vandalism confess to the act. They say: “Whoever refuses the women's right to self-determination for reasons of conscience shall not be surprised to find his shop vandalised for reasons of conscience.”
Who said that Stalinism is dead?
The Observatory on Intolerance and Discrimination against Christians in Europe is on Facebook and Twitter.

UK “conservatives” want to allow criticism is jihadists
Kick the bearded savages out.
It looks increasingly like the last of his children's septology The Last Battle may be prophetic as well: the Narnian Antichrist (or the Antiaslan, if you prefer) is a complete fake put up by an alliance of convenience between Narnian secularists and the Calormenes, thinly disguised Muslims. It's looking increasingly like, if not the last Antichrist prophesied in the Apocalypse of St. John the Theologian, at least the next in the long series of antichrists to plague the world, will be put up by a secularist/Muslim alliance.
Or an AR-15, or a Mossberg 500, or a Glock 42, etc.
But those cosmopolitan Europeans aren’t allowed these things, even as the muzzies close in for the kill. “Quelle domage!”
We hayseed Americans can & will resist jihadis with our own means of deadly force.
