As long as a person is in church...i think they should be left alone no matter what they did...

Let's use a hypothetical crime to which we can apply your reasoning.

"A person gets hit by a reckless driver whose car jumps the curb. The victim is injured, but the driver bolts into a nearby church. He knows the police can't touch him there. Meanwhile, the victim's been taken to the emergency room of a hospital and the family is beside themselves with worry.

The perpetrator found a safe haven...he/she, and the minister/reverend/pastor/priest don't have to obey the law."

What is the difference between the subject case and any other situation where someone breaks the law?

You are using the example of a person that accidentally causes harm to another?

That’s the best you can come up with? Are you sure you don’t wan’t to try a more emotionally charged example of something like rape of a minor or something like that?

I’m not changing my mind based on this bland example. Sorry.
