Christian pastor defends the burkini

Sep 2, 2016 9:16 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Pastor Ed Stetzer arrogantly takes it upon himself to declare that “this is not really about burkinis,” ignoring the fact that France has collectively faced the trauma of deadly, unprecedented jihad attacks that shook its citizens, so that when the burkini was sported on beaches, they were rightly taken as an assertion of Islamic supremacism, […]
