Markets aren't particularly Christian.
If you recall, Jesus himself led an attack on a market (John 2:14-22).
Christmas is!!!!!!
Despite all attempts to make it otherwise.
And it was a Christmas market.
It's sick. And sad. the 3 years we spent in Germany, our favorite times were the Christmas markets in our town. It was a chance for friends and neighbors to get together. Mulled wine for the grown-ups, hot chocolate for the kids.
It was sad and sickening to see this.

Hello!
I can assure you that something like that would never happen today. People have become much more sensitive. I think it was very borderline what was done, wanting to touch you for the sake of happiness.
Have you ever seen the Winnetou films? They are films about Native Americans and the Wild West, written by a German - who has never been to America - full of prejudices.
Many Germans take their lead from them and think that's actually what happened. I hope it's not too disrespectful, I'm interested in your opinion as someone with your background.
If it's not too personal for you.

Taleb Al-Abdulmohsen lives in Germany now – but there was once a time where he lived and worked in Saudi Arabia, and was incapable of safely expressing his atheism.
