Question 32629 — religions and cults

Summary

Mr. Meyer Habib alerts the Minister of the Interior to the worrying increase in anti-Christian acts. Churches desecrated, Christian bookstores vandalized, reliquaries dismantled, statues of the Virgin broken or decapitated, bones of saints stolen, religious treasures destroyed, parishes burglarized, and the height of barbarism, the odious assassination of Father Hamel, whose throat was slit on his altar on July 26, 2016... The figures are edifying! In 2019, we have counted in virtual media silence three anti-Christian acts per day, ten times more than anti-Muslim acts. Christians are on the front line facing the savagery of society, rightly decried by the Minister, like the French Jews, victims of increasingly violent anti-Semitism. Anti-Christian violence is becoming more commonplace day after day. Many feel abandoned by the authorities and are waiting for a political response that meets the challenges. When we vandalize a church, it is a piece of history of France and Europe that we defile, it is women and men that we attack in their faith and in their hearts. Anti-Semitic acts, anti-Christian acts, anti-Muslim acts, each time it is the Republic that is struck and its values ​​damaged. This is why he asks him what measures he intends to take to reduce the acts anti-Christians and strengthen surveillance of places of worship.
