A statue of Mary was broken up. Christians of different followings differ on the exact meaning of Mary in the life of believers, but surely nobody believes that there’s any power in the statue itself that can be negated by breaking it up. The same would go for a cross, a Jesus fish, or any other symbol of Christianity. I’m sad that these socialists with their humanistic nostrums cannot appreciate the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, whatever way that grace might be expressed. If it should be that this grace is expressed through a real live Virgin Mary, smashing any number of statues of Mary would not put a halt to that.
