>BERLIN — Two guitar players strummed and sang in Farsi as a stream of Afghans and Iranians knelt at the front of the church, sipping wine from a shared Communion cup. Most of the congregants had arrived within the last two years, part of the refugee influx that’s brought more than a million asylum seekers to Germany since 2015.
>At the peak of the crisis two years ago, this Lutheran church was holding mass baptisms of more than 200 people at a time, said the pastor, Gottfried Martens. “This church went from just a few hundred members to more than 1300 Iranians and Afghans,” Martens said, “All converts.”
>When Germany opened its doors to refugees in 2015, churches and church-affiliated organizations played a critical role in the response. Most of them took care to separate religion from humanitarian aid, especially those implementing state-funded relief projects. Three years into the crisis, however, some churches are more actively defending refugees, even housing rejected asylum seekers inside churches so that German police cannot deport them, while submitting legal appeals for their cases.

They were called Moriscos in Spain after the Reconquista. The Spanish too tried letting them convert, and eventually realized most of the conversions were false (like the Marranos who converted falsely from Talmudism), and expelled them all. No one ever learns from history.

This. Both Muslims and Jews are allowed to lie to save their lives. The muslims know the penalty for truly converting is death and wouldn't risk it.
