Katherine Gorbing, curator of the town’s abbey, said: "The mindless vandals who have hacked down this tree have struck at the heart of Christianity."

Moronic twit. The heart of Christianity is the deathless Christ, not a tree.

And it certainly was not mindless - in fact, it was probably a carefully calculated attempt at some sort of black magic.

Pathetic and impotent black magic, but an attempt nonetheless.

Knuckledraggers strike again.

“Moronic twit. The heart of Christianity is the deathless Christ, not a tree.”

I had similar thoughts when I read her comment too. I am sure she was just overwhelmed at the senseless and heartless vandalism though and not really measuring her words.
