Go to the link to see the idols taken from the church and subsequently thrown in the Tiber.

I'm interested in your thoughts. Was this good? Bad? Mixed? Why?

Europeans, of Italian descent, are “indigenous” to the area, so the statues are of some natives from some other continent, it appears.

Stealing is bad.

Destroying idols is good.

If someone enters another’s home, and places incendiary devices that will harm the structure, removing the devices and rendering them useless might be called “emergency services.”

I don’t think I’d call it “stealing.”

Stealing IS bad, but placing demonic pagan idols in the House of God, before the Blessed Sacrament reposed in the tabernacle, is blasphemous

Thank God for these manly & faithful soldiers of Christ. May He bless and protect them.

Praise God! Axios! Best thing I've seen in a long time.

I told our associate pastor, Fr. Jesus, about it on the way out of the 8:30 Mass. I said "Did you know somebody went into the Church of Santa Maria de Traspontina and gathered up all the Pachamama idols and threw them into the Tiber?"

He smiled serenely and said, "It's about time."

I call it pure, excellent, praiseworthy.

Tagline.

Catholics who are fed up with the pope integrating pagan religions into the church?

In Inca mythology, Pachamama is a fertility goddess who presides over planting and harvesting, embodies the mountains, and causes earthquakes. She is also an ever-present and independent deity who has her own self-sufficient and creative power to sustain life on this earth.

Thanks be to God.

The obeisance given this idol is something that is reserved for God and God alone. Putting it in front of the Tabernacle is an affront that demands reparation to the Blessed Sacrament.

I wonder if Francis is going to excommunicate these men of heroic virtue. The Vatican spokesman could only say that “they don't want to dialogue.”

Exorcists say it best: You do not dialogue with the devil.

I would ask everyone to pray for these brave men. They have asked the protection of Archangel St. Micheal, I would hope, but these men have challenged darkness and need much support and protection.

LOL, that's Schönborn's church. He's going to have his nose out of joint!

I've been praying a rosary every day for the Synod. What an awesome thing to happen!

Very good! Now get rid of the rest of these idols. I hear there’s one in the Vatican. And pull up that tree!
