If this loser thinks churches and minarets are the same he needs to be kicked out of ministry.
Then these “leaders” wonder why people are becoming increasingly dissatisfied with “Christian” churches. How contrary to Jesus statement: “I am the way the truth and the life and NO MAN cometh to the father except by me.”
That is about like saying Gatorade and anti-freeze look alike, so both are fine to drink.
The hakenkreuz (which we know as the swastika) and the hilal (Star and Crescent moon) are both symbols of authoritarian hierarchies, with total disrespect of all traditions of democracy and freedom. It has long been outlawed for the swastika to be displayed in Germany, and it should be as well for the Star and Crescent Moon.
What I mean to say, is that Islam is not really a religion at all, but an ideology similar to the Nationalist Socialist German Working-men’s Party. And nobody confuses THAT with a church or religion. There were brief attempts to tie Nazis with the Catholic Church, but that was on the order of a slander, and did not reflect reality in any way.
If the Nazis had any roots in religion at all, it would have been to the older pagan tradition of Druids and worship of Wodin, a celebration of a warrior society, which the leaders of the Third Reich fancied themselves to be.
This would be a much better analog of the world of Islam than any version of Christianity.
