“Palestine” may not be a state, but, Islam is already an “empire” from Milan to Barcelona, and would like to open the prisons of Allah to priests as well.
The conviction of a Spanish priest for “hate speech” has ignited a national conversation about the boundaries of religious expression and freedom of conscience in Europe. Custodio Ballester, a Barcelona parish priest known for his outspoken views, was found guilty last week of making “Islamophobic” remarks in an article he wrote more than seven years ago.
Ballester wrote an article titled “The Impossible Dialogue with Islam,” where he wrote that “radical Islam wants to destroy Christian civilization and raze the West to the ground.”
