Churches are fearing that they will be forced to submit their sermons to the Danish government – if or when a proposed law is passed.
Numerous faith-based news outlets report that the controversial legislation, backed by Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, would demand that any sermon not delivered in Denmark s native tongue be translated and submitted to government officials.
Many Christians across Denmark, including Anglican Bishop Robert Innes of the European diocese, are outraged and concerned about the proposed law – even though it is said to be primarily aimed at quarter of a million Muslims living in the country.
