Muslim migrants are converting to Christianity in their droves in the hope it will greatly improve their chances of winning asylum in Germany.

Hundreds of mostly Iranian and Afghan asylum seekers have changed faiths at the evangelical Trinity Church in a leafy Berlin neighbourhood alone.

Many claim true belief prompted the move, but the decision undoubtedly boosts their chances of being granted asylum by allowing them to claim they would face persecution if sent home.

Germany expected about 2,500 refugees to arrive in the country by early afternoon today after some 20,000 came in over the weekend.

Chancellor Angela Merkel today described the influx as 'breathtaking' and said it would change the make-up of country forever.

She said: 'What we are experiencing now is something that will occupy and change our country in coming years.'

She said Germany will ensure that those who need protection receive it, but that those who stand no chance of getting asylum will have to return to their homes swiftly.

Germany pledged an extra €6billion Monday to help the record numbers of desperate refugees crossing its borders

At a baptism, pastor Gottfried Martens asked one Iranian refugee Mohammed Ali Zonoobi: 'Will you break away from Satan and his evil deeds? 'Will you break away from Islam?'

To which he fervently replied: 'Yes.'

Martens then baptised him 'in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.'

Zonoobi, a carpenter from the Iranian city of Shiraz, arrived in Germany with his wife and two children five months ago.

Lying is a part of Islam, I am not shocked.

Offer them a pork sandwich during their interview by all women and see how it goes.

Darn! Another opportunity missed.

Well - as they say: Timing Is Everything.
