A study conducted by a polling firm for the Evangelical News Agency found 57% of Germans hold a negative view of Islam in their country, including 61% of women and two-thirds of the over-45s. Fear of Islam is particularly strong among Catholics at 61.5%, Protestants at 59.6%, and other Christians at 55.5%; also, 57% of non-churchgoers say they fear it. The poll also highlighted fear of rising crime as a result of the migrant influx, particularly among the country’s Jewish population - 92% of Jews said they fear attacks. Christians of all denominations believe Germany will be less safe as a result of the migrant surge; more than 60% believe crime will rise. In May, Germany’s interior minister published a report showing migrants contributing disproportionately to the country’s crime figures.
