2004 February 2, Karen Horsens, Kristeligt Dagblad:

When we all together are false prophets, whose lives contradict the true doctrine which we profess loudly, isn't it meaningless to discuss which faith is the true one?

1940, Sigurd Kristensen, Den første Skoleordning i Vejle Amt, in: Vejle Amts Aarbog, p. 12 / https://dis-danmark.dk/bibliotek/907342.pdf
Han slukker altsaa dog ikke Kirkelysene af samme Grund, som han forbyder Julestuerne og Bondens Riden Sommer i By, der alt til Hobe var Djævelens Værk.

So he doesn't put out the church candles for the same reason that he prohibits Christmas games and the town's summer peasant ride, which were all together the work of the Devil.
