As I have always said, Bavaria is the last remaining bastion of pride in Mad Cow Land.
The new Prime Minister (Ministerpräsident) of Germany's best region ordered that, as a statement in favor of the "region's identity and cultural imprint", crucifix shall be hanged from public buildings
It should not, however, be seen as a religious sign and the state shall remain secular.
Fuck yeah. I am not even a practicing catholic but that's exactly how I see religion's role in a modern society.
As a way to enforce identity and social cohesion.
Of course, the Liberal Party (FDP) was quick to react, with its head Christian Lindner hyperventilating on Twitter with Erdogan comparaisons.
Discuss immediately.
