The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Is Switzerland an actual Christian country?

Or is it all just LARP ?

Do they even claim to be Christian?

Given the things they are known for internationally, I thought their flag was just a coincidence or perhaps the influence of history.

They were "reformed", so no.

Even the Catholic church there has some damaging connections to the State, which basically dictates it what to do.

The Swiss flag represents the five first cantons.

Honestly, I didn't even know they claimed to be one.

Well, let's see Kikepedia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_Reformed_Church

"Social issues

Like many European Protestant denominations, several of the Swiss Reformed churches have openly welcomed gay and lesbian members to celebrate their civil unions within a church context. As early as 1999, the Reformed Churches in St. Gallen, Fribourg, and Lucerne had permitted prayer and celebration services for same-sex couples to recognize their civil unions."

YIKES, (((protestants))), Gay Marriage isn't even legal is Switzerland, not (((yet))) at least.

But looking at this map of 2008…It looks divide.

Moreover, Switzerland also had his "Catholics vs Protestants" civil war, and the Protestants won.

bible mah fren:

>Many are called but few are chosen

>Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.

>first five cantons

what did he mean by this?

I was wrong, there were eight cantons in the Old Swiss Confederacy, and the Swiss flag did have Christian origins. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Switzerland#History
