There are concerns for the faithful in Europe, where persecution and intolerance against Christians is now becoming more common. EWTN Vatican Bureau Chief, Andreas Thonhauser, recently spoke with the head of an organization that tracks and fights back against discrimination of Christians in Europe, Dr. Martin Kugler, who explained what the situation with hate crimes is right now in the continent. Dr. Kugler discussed how religious festivities provoke violence against Christians and what the concerns are with Easter coming up. He dived into what the Vatican could do to help the situation in Europe.
