Imagine, if you will, that you were hearing of weekly arson attacks on Mosques in Paris.

People were spraying graffiti threatening to kill Muslims, setting fire to their buildings and desecrating them.

This would be a worldwide scandal on the runup to the Olympics in the city, people would be threatening to boycott the even, people would be assured that their safety was paramount.

Yet this is what is happening, only to Catholics, and there is no outrage or backlash.

In the past week alone we have seen more unacceptable targeting of Catholics by vandals, thugs, terrorists, whatever you wish to call them.

Brittany

In Brittany, Notre-Dame-de-Délivrance was set on fire by an arsonist with a passerby luckily catching it on time and calling for help before it burned to the ground.

Prayer for the attackers and vandals, that these people may realize their mistakes, repent of any sin or vandalism to the churches, and turn to Christ. This is sad, no one should attack any building, or group of people, regardless of belief or state of mind.
