Islamification of Britain I: Christians Persecuted for Questioning Colonisers’ Religion

September 20, 2009 - By BNP News

kill-those-who-insult-islamBritain’s plunge into a fully fledged Islamic state has been underlined again with the news that a Christian couple has been criminally charged for arguing over religion with Muslims in their own private premises.

Media reports have revealed that Ben and Sharon Vogelenzangl, hotel owners in Liverpool, have been charged under public order laws with using “threatening, abusive or insulting words” that were “religiously aggravated.”

Apparently the Christian couple got into a discussion with Muslim residents of their hotel over religion.

During the course of the discussion, it is alleged that Mr and Mrs Vogelenzangl suggested that Mohammed, the founder of Islam, was a warlord and that the burka was a form of bondage.

One of the Muslims in the conversation then ran off to the police and complained that she had been offended by these comments, leading to the arrest and charges against the Christians.

This is an act which would only be possible in a theocratic state and is highly reminiscent of Saudi Arabia and other sharia law countries where any sort of criticism is a criminal offence.

The Christians, whose trial has been set for December, face a fine of up to £5,000 and a criminal record if they are convicted.

They deny that their comments were threatening and argue that they had every right to defend and explain their beliefs.

According to media reports, Mrs Vogelenzang said: “Nothing like this has happened to us before. We are completely shocked.”

She and her husband were arrested and charged under Section 5 of the Public Order Act 1986 and Section 31 (1) (c) and (5) of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998.

The Christians appeared at Liverpool Magistrates Court on Friday to hear the date of their trial before magistrates, and were granted bail on the condition that they did not approach any of the witnesses expected to appear.

The heavy-handed police action has once again highlighted the state’s subservience to the Islamification process.

The Public Order Act was designed to deal with violence and threatening behaviour in the streets and not to regulate conversations between individuals in private premises.

The Christian Institute has come out in support of the persecuted couple. CI spokesman Mike Judge was quoted as saying that “important issues of religious liberty are at stake.”

“In recent years, we have backed several cases where Christians have suffered unfair treatment because of their faith,” he said.

“We have detected a worrying tendency for public bodies to misapply the law in a way that seems to sideline Christianity more than other faiths.”
