Welsh flag "evil"

From here.

Quote:
A WELSH Christian group is calling for the traditional Welsh dragon flag to be replaced by the cross of St David.

The Welsh Christian Party says having a red dragon - an animal it believes symbolises the devil - on the national flag is at odds with Wales' position as a Christian nation.

It is calling for the flag which has officially been in place since 1959, to be replaced with the black and gold cross of St David.

The party's leader, the Rev George Hargreaves, said, "We will not allow this evil symbol of the devil to reign over Wales for another moment.

"Wales is the only country in history to have a red dragon on its national flag.

"This is the very symbol of the devil described in The Book of Revelation 12:3.

"This is nothing less than the sign of Satan, the devil, Lucifer that ancient serpent who deceived Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.

"No other nation has had this red dragon as its ruling symbol.

"Wales has been under demonic oppression and under many curses because of this unwise choice.
The flag of St David:-


Which is a bit boring no?

Dunno, it's quite snazzy colours. Still better having a fucking raging dragon on your flag but.

Re: Welsh flag "evil"

I've always thought the welsh flag was the best one in the uk purely because it has a big fuckoff dragon on it.

I'll say it here and now - I think the lion rampant is a shite flag.

Re: Welsh flag "evil"

I thought the Welsh flag was the only flag to have a mythical animal on it...

How wrong I was

Well there are many "dragon" myths that describe them as being Wyrm like.

Re: Welsh flag "evil"

I think they should get rid of the green it though. Looks like someone's done a cool drawing of a dragon on MS Paint then went and spoilt it by just using the paintbucket to do the land.

I refer the Welsh Christian Party to the case of Arkell vs Pressdram.

Re: Welsh flag "evil"

I just googled Revelation 12:3 to see what it actually says:

Quote:
Then another sign appeared in the sky: a huge red dragon with seven heads, ten horns, and seven royal crowns on its heads
It's spooky, because that describes the Welsh dragon to a T! What with the amazingly similar number of heads and crowns and horns and stuff it doesn't have.
