A statue of Mary holding baby Jesus was vandalized at the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn, the second such attack in the borough in three days, officials said Monday.

An employee of the diocese at 310 Prospect Park West first noticed the head of the baby Jesus was vandalized on Sunday, according to cops.

“There was a statue of Mary holding baby Jesus which had the head of Jesus knocked off,” an NYPD spokeswoman said.The attack was similar to one on Friday at a church in Bensonhurst, where a statue of Jesus was smashed and an American flag burned, the statement said.

Are there any depths to which they will not descend?

What’s their excuse?
Free speech?
Jesus was a slave owner in the white racist USA?
Belief in God interferes with their pagan idol worship of the Marxist State? That’s what China’s bosses believe.

Satanists...yes the ones depicted in the movie “Rosemary’s Baby”, are usually more bombastic.

I doubt it, especially as they claim Jesus and Mary are theirs.

It's probably an anti-Catholic leftist.

Thanks to the atheist and Muslim creeps in congress who are allowed to give the finger to Christians and shit on the republic!
This is YOUR fault Congress! You are breading this total disregard for what made our country great. YOU were not elected to run your own shit show!
It WILL catch up to you. It’s only a matter of time.

But Muslims are opposed to any visual depictions of Jesus (Isa). They consider those to be sacreligious.

"But Muslims are opposed to any visual depictions of Jesus (Isa). They consider those to be sacreligious."

But they don't have a history of defacing and destroying Catholic (and other) statues in this country. Anti-Catholic Leftists do, especially recently.

And yet, the FDR monument remains unmolested, even as HE created concentration camps in the US for Japanese Americans.

RRALLY?
Go back andcread the Haddiths. Read the Koran. Any human images, especially of other religions is anathema to them.
Remember the giant Buddhas in Afghanistan? They have been doing this EVERYWHERE since the 700s

Okay, so you are on the side of the atheists and leftists.

Consider the history: Islam has been around for 1400, and yes, Muslims have caused problems for Christians, but Christianity, in general, triumphed.

Leftists have been around 150 years. In that time, they're all but destroyed Christianity.I

Which is the real threat? I don't even think it's close.

Someday, Christians and Muslims will be on the same side for survival.

I guess you decided which team you were on.
