The Catholic Church sacked the Temple? I didn’t know that. Actually I doubt these things are still in Rome. They’ve already been looted long ago. Some people just hate Catholics, they just want to blame them for the world’s problems, like some people want to blame America for everything. This Councilman is just mouthing off to attract attention by way of controversy.
