50 Christian Statues Defaced and Decapitated in Germany

Fifty statues of Christ and other Christian figures have been defaced and smashed apart in a crime wave sweeping parts of Germany.

Statues in the Münster region in the west of Germany have been targeted over a series of months – including one of Jesus which had its head lopped off, and many more missing limbs or other fragments.

Mirko Stein of the Münster police told the channel: “large numbers of the people in the neighborhood where the sculptures are shocked and scared”.

“Based on the intensity of the acts of the perpetrator, one can already conclude that this act has a religious background.”

German criminologist Christian Pfeifer believes crimes were committed by someone who is “angry” and “hates the Church”.

Similar crimes against Christian artifacts in the area have been recorded as well.

According to the German tabloid Bild, 40 sculptures had been attacked in the two years preceding the current crime wave.

Police were investigating six men with alleged links to Islamic extremists, but gave up after three left for Syria, one died and the other two dropped off the radar. . .

Meh, statues. That being said, there IS a significant stupidity afoot around the world to invade the West and destroy traditional values. coughObamacoughSoroscoughHillarycough

Meanwhile, the Real Jesus Christ is alive and well; and waiting.

The NWO will organize, and plan, and meddle and disrupt.

Yes... but if we could only figure out the religion.

Hard to believe Europe is allowing this to happen.

This continent is built upon millions of dead bodies.

Wait a few minutes. Helen Thomas will blame it on the “Joosz”. She will, even though she has been dead for a couple of years. Nothing keeps a good anti-Semite or commie down, not even a stake through their heart and head.

Too often statues are given living properties in the minds of too many and are worshiped, bowed down to, kissed, and venerated as to receive some sort of benefit. The LORD forbids idolatry and may be using the heathen to do his bidding.

This seems offhand. Would you say, "Meh, an American flag"? "Meh, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier"? "Meh, Mount Rushmore"?

This enraged assault on "meh, statues" is atrocious, not because it was done in "hatred of statues," but because it was done in "Odium Christi" -- in hatred of Christ...

So... do you think it’s a good thing that these statues are getting defaced and destroyed.

Do you think the making of religious statues should be banned and all existing statues destroyed?
