Sam Hailes responds to the news that Lidl have removed Christian crosses from
their food packaging
What do Lidl and ISIS have in common? Answer: Both organisations remove
Christian crosses from churches.
ISIS’ genocide against Christians and destruction of religious
architecture has been well documented. But what wasn’t so well known (until this
week) is that the German supermarket chain Lidl has also taken it upon
themselves to remove Christian crosses.
When it came to designing the packaging for their Mousaka, Lidl used the
power of Photoshop (other photo editing programs are available) to erase crosses
from the roofs of famous Greek Orthodox churches in Santorini.
