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.

Compare 9/11 [Which was a really tragedy] to how many people [and specifically Christians] communists and leftists killed in the last century or so. But you are going to ignore all that?

>>Are there any depths to which they will not descend?<<

Is this any less blasphemous than the exhibition of “Piss Christ” done in the 1980’s? (crucifix submerged in jar of urine) No one cared then.
We will all get the bill for these outrages and our 1st Amendment rights in expressing ourselves will be worth less than the paper it is written on. Get ready.

Officials and police need to start finding these hoodlums, and the priests need to drop the “forgiveness” drivel and also call for justice. When these vandals get prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, this will decrease.

All churches should have several surveillance cameras nowadays.

It would save the police a lot of shoe leather.

I think a lot of people cared, but only a few people's opinions mattered.

Would it have been allowed if offended Islam?

This also happened: Virgin Mary Painting Encrusted With Elephant Dung to Go to Auction for $2.3 Million Giuliani complained, but it came to nothing.

Islam is a gutter religion. It's main tenants are killing and sexual perversion. Read the Koran, I did. Read a bio of Mohammad. I did.

He was evil beyond belief.

I am always thankful that “God is slow to anger” and those pagans should be, too. But aren’t.

I saw a video of the Life of Mohammed. ;)

In it he was a camel jockey who chased underaged girls.

The guy who made the vid went to jail, there was a riot in Benghazi and our embassy staff there were murdered.

HRC said, “What difference does it make?”

Regadless of the cosmic consciousness prmise he made to Bill Murray in Caddyshack, this guy is a total fool.

A portion of a Joseph Campbell comparative religion series episode shows black and white film of Tibetans being overrun by Mao's Communist troops, villages ransacked and looted, nonviolent people beaten and killed, women and children gang raped and resistors taken to hard labor camps. The Dalai Lama and others went into exile.

Now, in the 2020s the Dalai Lama still says in print and in speeches: "I am a Communist, myself."

“Never argue with a fool; onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.” – Mark Twain ----so I'll shut up about his views.
