Emulating Islam: The Left’s War on the Christian Cross
American Thinker ^ | 26 Jan, 2022 | Raymond Ibrahim

When it comes to Islam’s views on Christianity, the Left appears to be in agreement.

In many ways, the “secular Left” and Islam appear to be diametrically opposed: the Left is sexually promiscuous, Islam isn’t; the Left believes in countless genders, Islam doesn’t; the Left believes in all sorts of freedoms, Islam believes only in draconian sharia -- and so on and so forth.

When it comes to Islam’s views on Christianity, however -- that it is an inferior faith to be subjugated and discriminated against (Koran 9:29) -- the Left appears to be in agreement.

For example, a 61-year-old Christian woman who escaped to Britain from her Nigerian homeland -- where a genocide against Christians is currently underway -- experienced something similar in her adopted nation. Mary Onuoha, formerly a nurse at England’s Croydon University Hospital since 2002, was over the years repeatedly harassed by management and finally “bullied” out of her job for refusing to remove her small cross necklace, which she has worn for 40 years. As Mary explained in an interview:

This has always been an attack on my faith. My cross has been with me for 40 years. It is part of me, and my faith, and it has never caused anyone any harm... At this hospital there are members of staff who go to a mosque four times a day and no one says anything to them. Hindus wear red bracelets on their wrists and female Muslims wear hijabs in theatre. Yet my small cross around my neck was deemed so dangerous that I was no longer allowed to do my job.

Her bosses eventually claimed that her cross necklace “harbored bacteria… even though many colleagues were allowed to sport other items expressing their religious beliefs, be they turbans, hijabs or bracelets.”

The left instinctively sides with evil.

And it’s been this way since the 70s when Carter sided with the Iranian Ayatollah.

Clinton built on this in the 90s and 9/11 started the leftists full support of Islam over Christianity.

Yes, just look at Saul Alinsky’s dedication in his book “Rules for Radicals”.

The left is making war on everything traditional in the Western world and Christianity is one of those traditions along with education, law enforcement, judiciary, health care, mass transit, charities, sports and the military. The purpose is to break down every Western power base so the left can remake the world in their own imagined image.

The Brits seem to hate Christ and Christianity.
When Andrew Klavan published his successful YA series Homelanders in the UK the Waterstone bookstores, the largest in the UK, wanted him to remove all references to God and Christianity from the books. Since his Christianity was a major part of the main character, he refused and this cost him substantial sales in the UK.
I have seen similar attitudes in books written by UK authors.

Perhaps Christians need to return to the original symbol for Christ. Two intersecting arcs that look like a fish.
